Join us for a read-along book club of Goncourt winning novel, Petit Pays by Gaël Faye. In April, we invite you to read chapters 22 - 26 and then come ready to discuss online on the 27th at 5:30PM.

This book club is for those who regularly read en français and for those who are reading a novel for the first time! This group will meet every month during our closing. Between each meeting, participants will read around 5 chapters from the book.

What should we read next? Check out our online offerings and/or research Rue des voleurs, L'instant présent, and 7 ans après.
