Queer Book Club: Venus, Vanishing by Rebecca Birrell
About
In October join us for Venus, Vanishing by Rebecca Birrell a book described as "blisteringly passionate page-turner". It's a look at desire, art and the stories lost to the darkness of time, for fans of Yael van der Wouden and Sarah Waters.It's Berlin, 1928. Hannah is new to the pleasures and freedoms of the city. An artist, a runaway, she is building a new life, loving without boundaries and sketching with a cutting edge.
But the party is ending. Hannah begins a recklessly consuming affair with a powerful man’s wife and it soon threatens to do more than ruin both of their reputations. People are disappearing. The shadows of something unspeakable are growing darker. Her art could be the thing that secures her survival – or will deny her any chance of escape.
Join us for an evening of conversation, community and a glass of something good in the bookshop. This is a space centring queer readers and FLINTA+ voices — whether you're new or a regular, you're warmly invited.
Your ticket includes:
• a copy of the book
• a drink on arrival
• your spot on the night
Simply grab your ticket and pick up your copy in store.
