Bookgroup with Ellen Banda-Aaku

Ellen Banda-Aaku’s first novel, Patchwork, won the Penguin Prize for African Writing.  Written through a child’s eyes, it follows the story of 9-year old Pumpkin and her life in Lusaka.

This book group offers the opportunity to meet the author and discuss her writing in an informal group setting.  Please read the novel if you would like to attend.   Copies are available from Blackwell Bookshop in Market Square, University of York.
