This is breaking new ground for us – we have never, in all the years of book groups at the shop, discussed an English literature classic like this! Persuasion, Jane Austen’s last novel, is a moving, masterly and elegiac love story tinged with the heartache of missed opportunities. It tells the story of Anne Elliot, who, persuaded to break off her engagement to the man she loved because he was not successful enough, has never forgotten him.

Our book groups are open to all. Attend every meeting, occasionally or just once in your life. All we ask is that you read the book in advance and take part in the discussion. There’s a short introduction by a member of staff, a group regular, or someone we know with a special interest in the book in question.
Refreshments provided.
You can obtain the book from wherever you like – libraries are good! – but copies of our book group titles are available in advance from the bookshop at 15% discount.
We have four book groups – fiction, non-fiction, Pagan and Irish
