event details
Join us for an evening for book lovers to explore diverse stories and connect over a great read. We meet every six weeks to discuss books that range from fiction to memoirs, sci-fi to thrillers, and everything in between. Whether you’re a casual reader or a full-blown bookworm, you’re always welcome here.
Our next pick is I Heard Her Call My Name A Memoir of Transition by Lucy Sante: Sante’s memoir braids together two threads of personal narrative: the arc of her life, and her recent step-by-step transition to a place of inner and outer alignment. Sante brings a loving irony to her account of her unsteady first steps; there was much she found she still needed to learn about being a woman after some sixty years cloaked in a man’s identity, in a man’s world. A marvel of grace and empathy, I Heard Her Call My Name parses with great sensitivity many issues that touch our lives deeply, of gender identity and far beyond
