About this Event
From political non-fiction, to poetry, to spiritual awakenings by OG writers and brilliant newcomers — The Thawra Book Club has been delving into a wide range of interesting topics that touch on the way we as ethnic minorities navigate our places in society.
This month, we'll be reading Kaveh Akbar's Martyr! — a novel in which a newly sober, orphaned son of Iranian immigrants, guided by the voices of artists, poets, and kings, embarks on a search that leads him to a terminally ill painter living out her final days in the Brooklyn Museum.
Our in-person book club will be held on Wednesday 26th February at The Smithson, 6 Briset Street, London, EC1M 5NR. Expect lots of great discussion, ample refreshments, good vibes and some beautiful bookish goodies! We want this space to be a complete free, creative space for all to feel comfortable in voicing their thoughts and opinions — no matter how relevant you think it is and how much of the book you've read. Feel free to bring your physical/digital copy along with you!
Please follow us across social media to stay updated.
There will be photography/filming during the event.
