The Heiter Society Book Club - Autumn Meet-up for I Capture the Castle

Free online event. Everyone is welcome.

As part of our shared pursuit of “heiter”, to live more joyfully, we have created the Heiter Society Bookclub. There are many reasons why strangers may forge a connection, yet one universal thread weaving through all ages is the sharing of stories. While reading may often be a solitary pursuit, it possesses the remarkable ability to gather people together. Indeed, the act of reading as part of a group is a potent force for enriching our lives. We meet four times a year to read carefully curated, short, and not-too-recent, books that are around the theme of being present to the simple joys and pleasures of our daily lives. It is not essential to have read the book to attend if you don't mind spoilers. 

The next Heiter Society Bookclub read has been chosen and it's I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith. A charming, witty, and deeply atmospheric narrative, told from the perspective of a young woman coming of age, provides a rich ground for discussions on family, class, and the complexities of love.

 For this book club, we'd love to explore the idea of sharing books once we're done reading them. If you have a copy and are happy to read it and pass it along, let us know. Likewise, if you'd like to receive the book once someone else has finished, just get in touch!

We hope to see you there! Join the conversation 19th of November at 7.30pm UK | 8.30pm CET. The zoom link for the discussion is below and we'll share it again closer to the time.

If November feels too far away and you're looking to cultivate a little heiter you'll find a moment of calm and lots of inspiration in the latest Heiter E-Zine HERE.
