Our next Book Club will take place ONLINE on Tuesday, May 6th at 1900. Led by our treasurer, Ed, we will discuss Tom Lennon’s When Love Comes To Town.
From Amazon:
Meet Neil Byrne – try-scorer on the rugby field, prizewinning student, one of the in-crowd at the disco, regular guy, gay. Presenting one face to the world and burying his true feelings in fantasy, Neil manages to keep his secret. But when fantasy isn’t enough and he becomes caught up in the bizarre subculture of Dublin’s gay nightlife, the pretence must end. It is the time for truth. The consequences are both hilarious and painful. Told with honesty, humour and originality, ‘When Love Comes To Town’ brings a new type of hero to modern Irish fiction.
When Love Comes To Town
The book is available from all good and bad booksellers, on Kindle and audiobook. There are also lots of very affordable pre-owned copies on eBay.
What to Expect:
To get the most out of the event, there are a couple of things you should know, especially if you haven’t been to a book club before.
