Ever wanted to tackle the classics but unsure where to start? Or wanted to join a book club but don’t always have the time to read an entire book?

The Classic Short Reads Club meets monthly for lively discussion about a classic short story. Discover hidden gems, revisit old favourites and meet other curious readers.

You can find the links to upcoming stories below. Please do your best to read the short story prior to the session.
