Tuesday 16 June, 3:00pm
At a Member’s home the third Tuesday of the Month

This month we’ll be discussing a historical, bibliographic novel – ‘The Escape Artist’ by Jonathan Freedland. It covers the real-life, gripping story of Rudolf Vrba, who managed to escape from Auschwitz with detailed information to inform the world about what was happening there.

Meticulously researched, the novel shows how Vrba’s account was not believed, nor acted upon, by Churchill, among many others, and the effect this had on this remarkable man’s life. We’re expecting it will engender a lot of interesting discussion.

Book club numbers are limited, as we meet in members’ homes, and unfortunately, we currently have a waiting list. Feel free to contact us if you want to receive our reading list (created by member poll) or to be added to the waiting list.
