The Curious Readers Club is diving into Michael Deagler’s PEN/Hemingway Award-winning novel, Early Sobrieties. Full of heart and wit, this book explores how you create a new life for yourself when you’re surrounded by the old life.
We will dig into all the big ideas and small moments that made us feel the feelings. Mike will join us virtually from the West Coast of the US to answer our questions. Plus, when you register for this event, you get 10% off the paperback of Early Sobrieties (out now, £9.99) in the shop – and some swag!
