The benefits of reading are plenty. A good book can help you improve your literacy, mental health, and wellbeing, broaden your knowledge and introduce you to different perspectives (BBC Teach, n.d.). All good reasons to join our Book Review and Discussion Group! This month we are reading ‘Yellowface’ by Rebecca F Kuang.
June Hayward is a struggling author who hasn’t had her breakthrough yet. Athena Liu on the other hand is a literary critic favourite. So, when June happens to witness Athena’s accidental death, she takes her chance to claim fame. Even if that means stealing someone’s work and adopting a somewhat racially ambiguous new identity. When evidence begins to surface which threatens June’s newfound success, she will discover just how far she is willing to go to protect her secret.
You can sign up until Thursday 27 February and collect your FREE copy of this months’ book from our reception at Brook Street from 5 February.
A commitment to join the online discussion group, refreshments/snacks, a laptop/ tablet/mobile phone and an internet connection.
This course is funded by the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority. Eligibility criteria apply and learners will be expected to evidence this by showing ID, proof of address and proof of income when you collect your book. We will not retain copies of these documents.
When you finish this course, the invigorating discussions may have inspired you to undertake a Functional Skills English or even GCSE English qualification.
