Digital Book Club: June 2023

This month’s Digital Book Club title is Beautiful World, Where Are You by Sally Rooney. Alice, a novelist, meets Felix, who works in a warehouse, and asks him if he'd like to travel to Rome with her. In Dublin, her best friend Eileen is getting over a break-up and slips back into flirting with Simon, a man she has known since childhood.

Alice, Felix, Eileen and Simon are still young - but life is catching up with them. They desire each other, they delude each other, they worry about sex and friendship and the times they live in. Will they find a way to believe in a beautiful world?

‘Beautiful World Where Are You’ is available on BorrowBox as an eBook and eAudiobook with no waiting.
