Please join us on Thursday, October 24th for our inaugural book club! We'll be gathering to discuss Miranda July's new release, All Fours.
Arrive as early as 5pm for a free flowing discussion about the themes of the book (more details below). Well have wine & tea and welcome you to bring along any snacks or drinks that you'd like. We love to build community and look forward to delving into topics of life & womanhood in what we hope will be an ongoing gathering. This is a free event, and we kindly ask for an RSVP here so we can make sure we have enough chairs and drinks :)
About this month's book, from the author's website:
The New York Times–bestselling author of The First Bad Man returns with an irreverently sexy, tender, hilarious, and surprising novel about a woman upending her life.
A semifamous artist announces her plan to drive cross-country, from LA to New York. Thirty minutes after leaving her husband and child at home, she spontaneously exits the freeway, beds down in a nondescript motel, and immerses herself in a temporary reinvention that turns out to be the start of an entirely different journey.
Miranda July’s second novel confirms the brilliance of her unique approach to fiction. With July’s wry voice, perfect comic timing, unabashed curiosity about human intimacy, and palpable delight in pushing boundaries, All Fours tells the story of one woman’s quest for a new kind of freedom. Part absurd entertainment, part tender reinvention of the sexual, romantic, and domestic life of a forty-five-year-old female artist, All Fours transcends expectation while excavating our beliefs about life lived as a woman. Once again, July hijacks the familiar and turns it into something new and thrillingly, profoundly alive.
