Our first #TuesdayBookClub of 2026 is Omeros by Derek Walcott. An epic poem that drew me in slowly, then completely—revealing how history lives on in people, places, and the sea itself. A remarkable way to begin the year. 📚🌊 #Omeros #DerekWalcott #booksky

This week’s #TuesdayBookClub choice is Down and Out in Paris and London by George Orwell—a raw, unsparing look at poverty, labour, and life in the margins. Orwell’s clarity and empathy still shine through, and sadly, not much has changed. #GeorgeOrwell #BookSky
