Description
A new monthly book club exploring the depiction of London’s East End
Oral historian & radio broadcaster Alan Dein hosts a new monthly book club which will explore how the communities and the histories of the East End have been depicted in novels and non-fiction.
From old favourites to recent discoveries, Alan will take you on an extraordinary journey from the tailoring workshops of Brick Lane to the docks of Silvertown… and you may meet a unicorn on the way!
All titles discussed will be selected from the ‘East London Classics’ section in the shop, and will be available in advance.
