Our last Book Club meeting before the summer holiday will take place, exceptionally, in  the Thaï restaurant, The White Elephant, where we will be discussing our book of the month :

The Sea by John Banville

After losing his wife in difficult circumstances and reaching the twilight of his life, Max Morden, returns to a town on the Irish coast where he spent an unforgettable time as a boy. He reminiscences on those happy, carefree days. The intense nostalgia is enhanced by the fine prose. A beautiful book, a worthwhile read.
