The TMAF Book Club is a new quarterly gathering for readers who want to explore powerful stories by Black women and diverse authors. Launching on Wednesday 15th October at 7:30pm, our first book will be Girl, Woman, Other by Bernardine Evaristo – a celebrated, award-winning novel that follows the lives of twelve interconnected characters navigating identity, family, love, and womanhood in Britain.

The book club is designed to be more than just a reading group. It’s a safe and welcoming space to:

• Share your reflections and connect with others through meaningful conversation.

• Explore themes of culture, identity, history, and mental wellbeing that align with TMAF’s mission.

• Discover new authors and celebrate literature that speaks to the experiences of Black women and communities.

• Enjoy guided discussion questions and informal breakout conversations that encourage everyone to take part.

You don’t need to have finished the book to join – come as you are, listen in, and add your voice if you wish.
