The Black Writers' Book Club (BWBC) focuses on books written by Black British writers.
Books are a powerful way to discover the world around us and make changes. BWBC promotes literacy, visibility and the joy of reading Black authors.
We make our choices thoughtfully and look for ways to deepen our connection to books, writers, and ourselves.
We meet on the last Wednesday of the month and welcome readers from African, Caribbean and other Black British backgrounds, as well as readers of other ethnicities who are interested in Black British writing.

J. A. Mensah's Castles from Cobwebs
J. A. Mensah's debut novel Castles from Cobwebs is a compelling exploration of memory, race, mothers and the fractured self, Mensah questions the frameworks through which we understand the world and interrogates how to put disparate parts of our identities together to become the most true version of ourselves - Jessica Andrews, author of Saltwater, winner of the Portico Prize 2020.
