Irish Book Group reads Heart’s Invisible Furies by John Boyne

Our book groups are open to all. Attend every meeting, occasionally or just once in your life. All we ask is that you read the book in advance and take part in the discussion. There’s a short introduction by a member of staff, a group regular, or someone we know with a special interest in the book in question.

In this, Boyne’s most transcendent work to date, we are shown the story of Ireland from the 1940s to today through the eyes of one ordinary man. The Heart’s Invisible Furies is a novel about the search for a sense of self in a changing world and the ultimate, redemptive power of the human spirit.

The Irish Book Group is open to everyone wishing to discuss the book in question. You don’t have to be Irish!

Refreshments provided

You can obtain the book from wherever you like – libraries are good! – but copies of our book group titles are available in advance from the bookshop at 15% discount in the lead up to the event.
