A book lies fanned open on a wooden table in the afternoon sunlight. The Happy Human logo and 'Leicester Humanists' in black in the top left corner of the image.

Join us for our monthly book club! This month we are reading Heart of Darkness, by Joseph Conrad. 

The loose inspiration for Francis Ford Coppola's Apocalypse Now, Heart of Darkness is a classic novel, exploring themes of morality, racism and imperialism. What did you think of the book? What did you think of Apocalypse Now and its similarities, or differences, to the book? Given its influence on other works of literature and film, is the book what you expected? 

Join us for a friendly chat over a coffee or a beer.

We will begin the discussion at 18:30, so please arrive a bit before that!
