Uzès Book Club
At a Member’s home the third Tuesday of the Month
In December, we will be discussing the novel ‘Bel Canto’, by Ann Pratchett. Highly acclaimed, the novel is based on the Japanese embassy hostage crisis (also called the Lima Crisis) of 1996–1997 in Lima, Peru. It follows the relationships among a group of young terrorists and their hostages, who are mostly high-profile executives and politicians, over several months.
For the first time, the book club has decided to have a December meeting this year – a sign of the club’s popularity. Unfortunately, we are limited by space but we are trying to open up additional spots for 2026. We are also happy to share our 2025 book list (created via a member poll) if anyone is looking for new reading ideas.
If you would like to join the Uzès book club please contact Christine Frati or Angela Denton-Thompson to join the waiting list.
