PBR Book Club Announces Our Full Spring Slate!



We may not (ever) have a Wiki page, but nonetheless we remain a REAL book club which sometimes appears halfway professional and plans things in advance. 

Here's what is on tap for spring.  (Apparently we have an oral fixation).

March:  Zadie Smith's White Teeth.  It seems that not a single person in PBR Book Club has read this practically canonical post-colonial tome?  Well, hop to it.  Hopefully it doesn't feel TOO much like course work.



April:  James Hannaham's Delicious Foods.  This novel is partly narrated by crack cocaine.  Will this be the most unusual narrator we've encountered in any selection so far?




 May:  Han Kang's The Vegetarian, a "mesmerizing mix of sex and violence" that may well permanently scar us all.

 


All that AND the possible return of a two-month summer "big book" read?  It's a good time to join PBR Book Club.

  2. We're real live people! We meet on the last Tuesday of the month, usually at the Taproom (this month at John Brown Underground). Blog is largely defunct but you can find us on Twitter and Facebook.
