Join us for a discussion of Whale Fall by Elizabeth O’Connor.

It is 1938 and for Manod, a young woman living on a remote island off the coast of Wales,the world looks ready to end just as she is trying to imagine a future for herself. The ominous appearance of a beached whale on the island’s shore, and rumors of submarines circling beneath the waves, have villagers steeling themselves for what’s to come. Copies of the book are available at the library, and through Libby. New voices are always welcomed at the book club!
