SUMMARY:risc book club: the sound of things falling
DESCRIPTION:By Juan Gabriel Vásquez – No sooner does he get to know Ricardo Laverde in a seedy billiard hall in Bogotá than Antonio Yammara realises that the ex-pilot has a secret. Antonio’s fascination with his new friend’s life grows until the day Ricardo receives a mysterious\, unmarked cassette. Shortly afterwards\, he is shot dead on a street corner. Yammara’s investigation into what happened leads back to the early 1960s\, marijuana smuggling and a time before the cocaine trade trapped Colombia in a living nightmare.

SUMMARY:risc book club: stories from the romani world
DESCRIPTION:By Janna Eliot – Spokes is made up of stories from across the Traveller world\, featuring British Gypsies\, settled and still travelling; Irish Travellers\, East European Roma; and people whose Romani background has remained under wraps in the face of a hostile world. There’s an old violinist\, a middle-aged mechanic\, a young radio presenter\, a schoolboy\, a retired banker\, a tealady and a teacher. Sometimes humorous\, sometimes tragic; every story is based on real incidents.
