West End Book Club: The Lost Apothecary (West End - In Person)

Join Library Trustee Gemma Tansey for the book discussion of The Lost Apothecary by Sarah Penner. The Lost Apothecary is about how hidden in the depths of eighteenth-century London, a secret apothecary shop caters to an unusual kind of clientele. Women across the city whisper of a mysterious figure named Nella who sells well-disguised poisons to use against the oppressive men in their lives. But the apothecary's fate is jeopardized when her newest patron, a precocious twelve-year-old, makes a fatal mistake, sparking a string of consequences that echo through the centuries.
