We meet between 7:00 and 9:00 pm on the third Tuesday of each month in the Boardroom at the Beddington Theatre Arts Centre.
Our March 18 book will be When We Were Shadows by (local author) Janet Wees.
“The true story of Walter and his Jewish family, who were hidden from capture in the Netherlands throughout the Second World War. The story spans Walter’s life from six to fourteen years of age and is accented by Walter’s letters, first as a child to his grandparents and later, looking back, to his grandson.
We learn of the strangers who shelter Walter and his family, the members of the Resistance who risked their lives to see them to safety again and again, and of the Hidden Village, a community in the forests of Holland that hid more than 100 people. Throughout, we see the courage and resilience of a boy faced with unimaginable hatred and terror.” – from Goodreads.com.
Our April 18 book will be Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh.
