We have chosen Francis Spufford’s ‘Golden Hill’, for our next book. Please join us on Wednesday at 7.30pm in Plommer House Room A, for a glass of wine or cup of coffee and share your views on this book.
Review from the Guardian: ‘Golden Hill’ is a banquet of a book. Set in 1746, it tells of a young man’s adventuring in New York, a city then of just 7,000 people. Richard Smith, fresh off the boat, a man with a knack for languages and an order for £1,000 in his pocket, encounters thieves and thespians, lawyers and slaves. He slips in and out of trouble; he tumbles into love.
