Book enthusiasts, join us on Zoom to talk about Coco Mellor’s addictive and poignant Cleopatra and Frankenstein.

Our Book Club meetings are an informal space to chat with other readers and publishing hopefuls. There are no expectations for you to contribute to the discussion or to have your camera on – we want everyone to join in a way that is comfortable for them! Whether you’ve finished the book, are part-way through or haven’t even opened the cover, we would love to see you there.

Cleopatra and Frankenstein:

Twenty-four-year-old British painter Cleo has escaped from England to New York and is still finding her place in the sleepless city when, a few months before her student visa ends, she meets Frank. Twenty years older and a self-made success, Frank’s life is full of all the excesses Cleo’s lacks. He offers her the chance to be happy, the freedom to paint, and the opportunity to apply for a Green Card. But their impulsive marriage irreversibly changes both their lives, and the lives of those close to them, in ways they never could’ve predicted.

Coco Mellors:

Coco Mellors is a writer from London and New York. She received her MFA in Fiction from New York University, where she was a Goldwater fellow. She currently lives in Los Angeles with her husband. Cleopatra and Frankenstein is her first novel.
