Queer Feminist Book Club

argonautsmaggienelsonFor the next session of Book Club let’s get out to the frontiers of the latest thinking about love, language, family and queerness. We will be discussing non-fiction book The Argonauts written by Maggie Nelson.

“Maggie Nelson’s The Argonauts is a genre-bending memoir, a work of ‘autotheory’ offering fresh, fierce, and timely thinking about desire, identity, and the limitations and possibilities of love and language. At its center is a romance: the story of the author’s relationship with the artist Harry Dodge. This story, which includes Nelson’s account of falling in love with Dodge, who is fluidly gendered, as well as her journey to and through a pregnancy, offers a firsthand account of the complexities and joys of (queer) family-making.”

Idea of Book Club is to discuss together particular topic in cosy atmosphere with cup of a tea and some good literature. Once per month, chapter from a book is offered to read in advance. Check the literature in Facebook event and join us on Tuesday, March 21th in LGL`s community centre!
