Brunch & Book Club

Since we had a hiatus for the summer, we will have a combined Brunch and Book club as our welcome back event. Everyone in the group is welcome (all genders). It will be a potluck so bring a dish if you can but don’t stress if you can’t.

When: Saturday, September 1, 1pm
Where: Marina’s Rooftop – Jungstrasse 8/46, 1020 Wien

We will be eating first and discussing the book later. There will be many people there, some discussing the book, some not, so please PSVP. If you are bringing a dish or drinks, please mention it in the comments.

For this month’s book club, we will be reading What It Means When A Man Falls From The Sky, by Lesley Arimah. Please feel free to join us for an intimate discussion.

Looking forward to enjoying the wonderful cuisine rooftop of our host – Marina.

“One of the pleasures of reading Lesley Nneka Arimah’s debut collection is the feeling of being thrown off balance: not knowing where this playful and adventurous new talent will take you next. The 12 stories that make up What It Means When a Man Falls from the Sky are set in Nigeria and the US, sometimes moving between the two (the author was born in the UK, has lived in Nigeria and is now based in the States). Arimah’s focus is on the lives of girls and women, and while her perspective is often bleak, the collection is bracing and varied.” – https://www.theguardian.com/books/2017/sep/02/what-it-means-when-man-fallsfrom-the-sky-lesley-nneka-arimah-review
