For all Book lovers, we created this group for you. We meet monthly and focus on books relating to Indonesia, both fiction and non-fiction. Our aim is to get to know Indonesia better through its writing, to discuss our views, and to get to know fellow members from all over the world with similar interests in a smaller group setting. Our discussions are always very lively and take place in person at the IHS Library or Online via zoom. Participation is free, members are responsible for getting their own copy and will need to pre-register.
