No Mr Bond, We Expect You To Read

City Reads

As modern society mongs out in front of YouTube and Facebook with drool dripping down its chin, it’s worth remembering that back in the olden days we read books for our entertainment. City Reads is an annual citywide reading initiative and has just launched in Brighton. The idea is that the whole city buries its nose in a particular tome and chats about its themes at bus stops. This year it’s Ian Fleming’s From Russia With Love, the 5th Bond outing from 1957. There are copies being given away all round the place and related bookish events around town til the end of May.
