SUMMARY:The Feminist Book Club with Kate Feld
DESCRIPTION:House of Books & Friends are delighted to announce that we are hosting the Feminist Book Club with facilitator Kate Feld. Taking place monthly\, this will be a space for people of all genders to discuss feminist books. In October\, we will be discussing Bad Feminist by Roxane Gay. \nTickets\nBook and ticket: £13.99\nTicket only: £3 \nAs always\, there are a limited amount of complimentary tickets available for those who need them. Please contact us directly at bookworms@houseofbooksandfriends.com or call 07597 365380. \nAbout the book \n‘Pink is my favourite colour. I used to say my favourite colour was black to be cool\, but it is pink – all shades of pink. If I have an accessory\, it is probably pink. I read Vogue\, and I’m not doing it ironically\, though it might seem that way. I once live-tweeted the September issue.’ \nIn these funny and insightful essays published pre-2014\, Roxane Gay takes us through the journey of her evolution as a woman (Sweet Valley High) of colour (The Help) while also taking readers on a ride through culture of the last few years (Girls\, Django in Chains) and commenting on the state of feminism today (abortion\, Chris Brown). The portrait that emerges is not only one of an incredibly insightful woman continually growing to understand herself and our society\, but also one of our culture. \nBad Feminist is a sharp\, funny and sincere look at the ways in which the culture we consume becomes who we are\, and an inspiring call-to-arms of all the ways we still need to do better. \n \nAbout Kate \nKate Feld is a writer who grew up in in the U.S. state of Vermont and now lives outside Manchester\, UK. She writes poetry\, short fiction\, essays and prose that sits between forms. Her writing explores the natural world\, mythology and the unconscious\, often taking the form of lyric narratives that both interrogate and celebrate lived experience. Her work has been published widely in journals and anthologies including The Stinging Fly\, The Letters Page\, Hotel and Tolka. She is the founding editor of UK creative nonfiction journal and reading series The Real Story\, and lectures in Journalism at the University of Salford. Her chapbook of poetry and photography\, Deeryard\, is forthcoming from Death of Workers Whilst Building Skyscrapers.
