About this Event
BMAC Reads is supported by a gift in memory of Lorraine K. Wiesen, a lover of books and art.
BMAC Reads brings book and art lovers together for book club-style discussions about books about art.
In Monsters: A Fan’s Dilemma, Claire Dederer explores a question many of us wrestle with: what do we do when we love art made by people who have caused harm? Blending personal reflection with cultural commentary, Dederer examines how admiration, discomfort, and moral judgment overlap in our everyday lives as readers, viewers, and fans. The book encourages discussion rather than debate, making it a rich starting point for sharing perspectives and listening to one another.
Moderated by voracious reader and Brattleboro Literary Festival board member Elizabeth Catlin, BMAC Reads always provides a mix of insightful conversation and fascinating perspectives—plus refreshments and an opportunity to explore the museum’s current exhibits. Space is limited, so register now, start reading, and don’t miss out on this unique blend of culture, conversation, and creativity.
