The Eights – An Evening of Wine and Conversation with Joanna Miller

In 1920, in the aftermath of the Great War, women have finally been given the right to vote and Oxford University fully opens its doors to female students. Four young women, all from very different backgrounds, but united in their search for education, emancipation and equality, find themselves thrust into a life-affirming friendship. Under the city’s dreaming spires,  navigating centuries of male tradition takes as much courage and self-determination as the long reading lists and writing of essays. This highly enjoyable novel, with its atmospheric snapshot of Oxford, and celebrating the power of female friendship, is set to become a modern classic.
