SUMMARY:The Global Stories Book Club with Laviya Cooke – October
DESCRIPTION:House of Books & Friends are delighted to announce that we are hosting The Global Stories Book Club\, facilitated by Laviya Cooke. Taking place on the first Wednesday of every month\, The Global Stories Book Club is a space where the voices of people of colour are explored and celebrated. People of colour are welcome\, as is anybody interested in stories from diverse perspectives. \nTaking place Wednesday 7th October at 6pm we will be discussing Cursed Daughters by Oyinkan Braithwaite. \nTickets \nClick here to buy a book and ticket \nClick here to buy a ticket only \nAbout the book \nNo man will call your house his home. And if they try\, they will not have peace… So goes the family curse\, handed down from generation to generation\, ruining families and breaking hearts as it goes. And now it’s calm\, rational Eniiyi’s turn – who\, due to her uncanny resemblance to her dead aunt\, Monife\, and her family’s insistence that she must be a reincarnation\, has long been used to some strange familial beliefs. \nStill\, when she falls in love with the handsome boy she saves from drowning\, she can no longer run from her family’s history. Is she destined to live out the habitual story of love and heartbreak\, or can she escape the family curse and the mysterious fate that befell her aunt?
