Join us for the next book club on Tuesday 26th Aug at 6:30pm discussing: How To Write An Autobiographical Novel: Essays by Alexander Chee
A magical collection of essays, thoughtfully crafted exploring the wild road of radical self inventions in life and in art. A book that preaches the power of art to heal, investigating fiction as a gateway into our own realities. With a sense of kinship in every word of sixteen brutally honest and vulnerable essays on the most formative experiences of Chee’s life. His time as a tarot reader, Rosaries, writing life, Korea, America, Trump and everything in between. Entailing stories of survival and activism during the AIDS pandemic as a member of the ACT UP group in the 80’s. Investigations of race, class, gender and many many notes shared from his own mentors, professors and friends made and lost along the way.
Happy reading!
