We will be meeting on Saturday 31st January at 17:00
English Books and Tea, Cologne

The book we will be discussing is 'A Canticle for Leibowitz' by Walter M. Miller Jr.
This novel has been around for a while and I am quite astonished that I only just came across it. It is broadly speaking science fiction. Much like 'Slaughterhouse 5' by Kurt Vonnegut, 'Never Let Me Go' by Kazuo Ishiguro etc.... the label 'science fiction' doesn't really do it justice.
This will be great to discuss - there are so many themes and ideas in this novel. I am getting all excited at the very idea of discussing it with other people...... Ok. Time for my dried frog pills.
