Gina Perry with Burway Books at Chruch Stretton Library

Join Burway Books for a conversation with Gina Perry, author of The Lost Boys, at Church Stretton Library on Sunday 20 May.

The Lost Boys is the fascinating true story of one of the most controversial psychological experiments of the modern era — a real-life Lord of the Flies. In 1954, a group of boys attended a remote summer camp where they were split into two groups, and encouraged to bully, harass, and demonise each other. Drawing on archival material and new interviews, Perry pieces together a story of drama, mutiny, and intrigue that has never been told before.

Tickets to this event are £5, available from Burway Books.
