Reading group: See Under: Love

Momik, an only child whose parents survived the Holocaust, grows up in the shadow of their history, determined to understand the nature of the Nazi "beast".

George Steiner described its child's-eye grappling with the taboo of the Holocaust as "one of the great feats in modern fiction".

Naomi Lightman teaches literature at Birkbeck College, the Open University and the City Literary Institute, London.

PLEASE READ THE BOOK BEFORE THE SESSION.

PLACES ARE LIMITED, BOOKING ESSENTIAL.
