About the book club:
Our goal is to inspire and motivate readers to maintain a reading lifestyle. Reading can be an isolating activity when done alone, but when readers read together, it’s fun and sustainable. Each month, the book club members select one book to read. They then meet to discuss their findings. If you are interested in joining the TUBAZE Book Club, please complete the form on the next slide and submit it. The Group Leader will contact you.

About the book:
Two young people meet at a pub in South East London. Both are Black British, both won scholarships to private schools where they struggled to belong, both are now artists - he a photographer, she a dancer - trying to make their mark in a city that by turns celebrates and rejects them. Tentatively, tenderly, they fall in love. But two people who seem destined to be together can still be torn apart by fear and violence. At once an achingly beautiful love story and a potent insight into race and masculinity, Open Water asks what it means to be a person in a world that sees you only as a Black body, to be vulnerable when you are only respected for strength, to find safety in love, only to lose it. With gorgeous, soulful intensity, Caleb Azumah Nelson has written the most essential British debut of recent years.
