‘The House in Bacolet’

Local author, David Lambert introduces his novel, The House in Bacolet. Born in Trinidad and Tobago to a West Indian father and an Irish mother,  David grew up immersed in the rich diversity of the Caribbean where his novel is set. As well as being an intimate portrait of a marriage, the book explores the difficulties of human communication and how these are compounded when race, sex and culture-bound assumptions are added to the mix.

His talk is part of the Autumn programme of talks and recitals at St Augustine’s church, supported by the local Roads’ Associations (Windsor, Richmond, Oxford and Benson Area). A complimentary glass of wine or fruit juice and nibbles are served at most events. Retiring collection.

The September talks will focus on aspects of Creation science and Christian responsibility and October’s themes celebrate Black History month. You can view the full programme HERE or pick up a leaflet in one of our churches.
