Book Socials: Meetings of Minds Around Our Books
Every few months, we invite anyone interested in The School of Life to gather in a bookshop (or, sometimes, another congenial venue) for the very best kind of social event: one in which we can discuss ideas, share thoughts and meet new people. At every event, we present one of our book titles (it doesn’t matter at all if you haven’t read it) and we encourage you, the audience, to chat around its theme, guided by questions we’ll provide. This is the perfect chance to have stimulating conversations with like-minded people – and discover life-enhancing and enriching ideas.
