Last month's book, When The Night Comes by Favel Parrett, was very well recieved. It's really something of a paean to the Antarctic research ship, the Nella Dan, skipping in its telling between a young girl, Isla, and one of the crew Bo. I found the jumps to be a little difficult to follow at time but the vignettes in the book were very engaging. There were a couple of places where we though that the writer had taken things a bit too far but they didn't detract too much.
Our next book is Spies by Michael Frayn which Mark suggested and – somewhat uncharacteristically – was accepted without much fuss.
See you all at The All Nations on June 5!
