About this Event

The LMA Book Group remains a virtual discussion group and we meet monthly online. All are welcome to attend - though if you haven't read the book there may well be spoilers!
Now regarded as a modern British classic, Kureishi’s first novel announced the arrival of major literary talent when it was published in 1990. Set in 1970s London, it tells the story of Karim, a mixed-race teenager who is desperate to escape a dreary suburb and explore his identity, which Kureishi explores with irreverent and occasionally bawdy humour.
For each session, a presentation of original archive material is provided to stimulate discussion.
