Readers also love the Verso Book Club

  • Verso and its authors are the most important intellectual presence in my life.

  • The sheer quantity of material accessible through the book club means I am never wanting for figuring out what I’d like to read.

  • It pushes me to read more. When I don’t have anything immediately lined up on my reading list, I can count on the Verso Book club to send me something interesting, so this way I’m always reading something.

  • I enjoy having my horizons broadened with books I might not necessarily pick for myself.
