We are the Glasgow Young Walkers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Join the Glasgow Young Walkers for our next book club night! Get to know current/new members, have a fun social walk and discuss what you liked (or didn't like) about the current month's book selection.
This month's book will be 'The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat and Other Clinical Tales' by Oliver Sacks.
As per Goodreads:
'In his most extraordinary book, Oliver Sacks recounts the stories of patients lost in the bizarre, apparently inescapable world of neurological disorders. These are case studies of people who have lost their memories and with them the greater part of their pasts; who are no longer able to recognize people or common objects; whose limbs have become alien; who are afflicted and yet are gifted with uncanny artistic or mathematical talents. In Dr Sacks' splendid and sympathetic telling, each tale is a unique and deeply human study of life struggling against incredible adversity.'
We'll begin and end in George Square, with the option to grab a snack and/or a beverage after our walk.
