Join for a showing of this classic 1965 film based on the novel of the same name by Richard Hughes.
This month the library's book group, The Bookies will be discussing Richard Hughes' novel A High Wind In Jamaica. In conjunction with that meeting, we will be watching the 1965 film based on the novel.
A High Wind in Jamaica, by the early 20th century Welsh writer Richard Hughes, is set in the late nineteenth century and follows a group of children captured by pirates on a voyage from Jamaica. A critical success as well as a bestseller in Britain, it was awarded the Prix Femina Vie-Heureuse in 1932.
If you are interested in reading the novel and joining the Bookies for our discussion, please do! Bookies will meet on Tuesday, July 9 at 10:00 a.m.
