UFL Book Club

The UFL Book Club has been around for 38 or 39 years, just slightly more than half of the UFL’s existence. The UFL Book Club meets on the third Tuesday of the month from 2-4 pm. The UFL Book Club’s most recent meeting was on Tuesday, November 19, 2024, 2-4 pm, in-person, at the UFL. A lot of our membership attended the meeting and we had a special attendee, UFL member, Debra Dawson. One member, unable to attend in-person, joined us by Zoom. The book discussed was ‘Runaway Wives and Rogue Feminists: The Origins of Women’s Shelters Movement in Canada’ by Margo Goodhand. Debra knows some history of the establishment of the women’s shelters in London. It was a good meeting with much discussion and we are grateful to Debra for joining us and imparting her knowledge.

The December book, ‘The Stranger in the Woods, The Extraordinary Story of the Last True Hermit’ by Michael Finkel was distributed. Our December meeting will be on Tuesday, December 17, 2024, 2-4 pm, hopefully and most likely in-person at the UFL.
