Beyond the Book Book Club - A discussion

Beyond the Book Book Club selects fiction or non-fiction titles that are timely, and are socially, politically, or culturally significant. Beyond the Book Book Club meets four times a year, on Wednesday evenings. Led by LPB staff, Kirsten.  February, May, August & November 

Book club picks receive 15% off when in paperback, 20% off when only a hardcover edition is available. 

November's pick:

Roxane Gay's most-anticipated new book, Opinions, releases October 10, 2023. We MAY have a few signed copies available, pre-order now and first come first available to receive a signed copy. 

From beloved and bestselling author Roxane Gay, “a strikingly fresh cultural critic” (Washington Post) comes an exhilarating collection of her essays on culture, politics, and everything in between.

Since the publication of the groundbreaking Bad Feminist and Hunger, Roxane Gay has continued to tackle big issues embroiling society—state-sponsored violence and mass shootings, women’s rights post-Dobbs, online disinformation, and the limits of empathy—alongside more individually personalized matters: can I tell my co-worker her perfume makes me sneeze? Is it acceptable to schedule a daily 8 am meeting? In her role as a New York Times opinion section contributor and the publication’s “Work Friend” columnist, she reaches millions of readers with her wise voice and sharp insights.

Opinions is a collection of Roxane Gay’s best nonfiction pieces from the past ten years. Covering a wide range of topics—politics, feminism, the culture wars, civil rights, and much more—with an all-new introduction in which she reflects on the past decade in America, this sharp, thought-provoking anthology will delight Roxane Gay’s devotees and draw new readers to this inimitable talent.
