Scottish Bound Book Club: Companion Piece by Ali Smith

Our first book club selection of 2023 is Companion Piece by Ali Smith!

Described as “Scotland’s Nobel Laureate-in-waiting” by Irish Booker Prize winner Sebastian Barry, Ali Smith’s new novel explores companionship in all its forms

A woman receives an unexpected call from a former classmate asking for help deciphering a puzzling interaction, and from there, Smith spins out a broader story about loneliness, refuge and freedom.” —The New York Times Book Review

“Lyrical and timely…Smith’s novel will push readers to consider what it means to let people into your life, even when you don’t want to.” —TIME

Want to read ahead? Here’s a list of all our book club selections for the year. We will be discussing these books throughout 2023 on Zoom (each discussion will begin at 6 PM and last approximately one hour).
