SYP Ireland August Book Club

August 2, 2024 @ 8:00 PM - 9:00 PM

You are warmly invited to SYP Ireland’s August book club, which will be held online over Zoom. This time we will be reading Evenings and Weekends, the recently published debut from Oisín McKenna.

Book description: Summer in London stops for no-one. Not the half-naked boozers, stoners, and cruisers, the hen parties glugging from bejewelled bottles, the drag queens puffing on hurried fags. It’s June 2019, and everyone has converged on the city’s parks, beer gardens and street corners to revel in the collective joys of being alive. Everyone but Maggie. She’s 30, pregnant and broke. Faced with moving back to the town she fought to escape, she’s wondering if having a baby with boyfriend Ed will be the last spontaneous act of her life. Ed, meanwhile, is trying to run from his past with Maggie’s best friend Phil and harbouring secret dreams of his own. As Saturday night approaches, all their lives are set to change forever. It’s the hottest summer on record and the weekend is about to begin…

Join us over Zoom for a relaxed chat about the book and a catch-up, we’d love to see you there! Registration required, but this is a free event.
