About us

Global Book Club Plymouth has chosen three books which give a varied insight into Germany's past - a personal history told through the story of one house, a classical novel set in Nazi Berlin and a lightning tour of German history.

You are invited to read one or all three of the following, then come and join the discussion.

- The House by the Lake by Thomas Harding - 20th century Germany, through the lives of the families who lived in a summer house near Berlin.
- Alone in Berlin by Hans Fallada - a classic novel of life under an oppressive regime.
- The Shortest History of Germany by James Hawes - 2,000 years in 240 pages: a bestseller in the UK and Germany.

The event is free to attend and is open to all - no booking required. Please note the venue has disabled access - if the ground floor door is locked, please ring 01752 588400.

Email Sue Kay (s.kay@blueyonder.co.uk) or call DDE on 01392 438811 for enquiries.

An initiative of Devon Development Education, Global Book Club Plymouth is supported by the University of Plymouth.
