Booking will close on Friday 6th November 2026 at 12 noon.

Due to limited resources we are UNABLE TO ACCEPT LATE BOOKINGS after this date.

This course will be held in Room 1.10 of the Scrymgeour Building, University of Dundee.

Wednesday mornings 10.00 a.m. - 12.00 p.m. for five weeks, 11th November - 9th December.

Another season of the programme of ‘book club with no homework’ events. Every week will feature something new, and therefore no pre-reading is required!

Each week we’ll read a short story and a poem together and share our thoughts about them. What did you like about them? What didn’t you like? Discussions will be informal and engaging rather than analytical and academic. The focus will be on reading for pleasure and discovering great writing together.
