Pure Fiction

the long version

All they needed for a good night out was a book... When the local library starts up a reading group, Ed is the first to sign up. Left home alone with baby Georgia once too often, he's looking for something more stimulating than his tiresome thesis. His fellow readers all have their own reasons for the weekly escape - Kate's social life is at a standstill, Zoe's self-esteem is battered by her married lover, semi-retired Bob needs to get out of the house, Donna wants to catch up on her education. Along with lecturer Gideon, the reading circle draws its members into an unlikely community, and their lives grow ever more entwined...
