The English Book Club is open to advanced level and native English speakers and focuses on one book each month.
In November, we will discuss : Embers by Sandor Marai, Hungarian writer, poet and journalist.
The book conjures the melancholy glamour of a decaying empire and the disillusioned wisdom of its last heirs.
Summary: in a secluded woodland castle an old General prepares to receive a rare visitor, a man who was once his closest friend but who he has not seen in forty-one years. They will exhume the memory of their friendship and that of the General’s beautiful, long-dead wife. They will return to the time the three of them last sat together ; and when something was lost forever.
Next book in line :
The Good Soldier by Ford Maddox Ford (Dec. 15th)
