SUMMARY:New Reads: Flights by Olga Tokarczuk
DESCRIPTION:The New Reads Book Club focuses on contemporary literature and is hosted by Drawn and Quarterly staff members. The book club meetings take place every 4-6 weeks\, and are open to all. For our NOVEMBER meeting\, we will meet at La Petite Librairie Drawn & Quarterly (176 Bernard O.) at 7 pm to discuss Flights\, by Olga Tokarczuk. The evening will be hosted by Librairie Drawn & Quarterly’s own Alyssa Favreau. Join us for discussion and drinks! \nFLIGHTS\nFrom the incomparably original Polish writer Olga Tokarczuk\, Flights interweaves reflections on travel with an in-depth exploration of the human body\, broaching life\, death\, motion\, and migration. Chopin’s heart is carried back to Warsaw in secret by his adoring sister. A woman must return to her native Poland in order to poison her terminally ill high school sweetheart\, and a young man slowly descends into madness when his wife and child mysteriously vanish during a vacation and just as suddenly reappear. Through these brilliantly imagined characters and stories\, interwoven with haunting\, playful\, and revelatory meditations\, Flights explores what it means to be a traveler\, a wanderer\, a body in motion not only through space but through time. Where are you from? Where are you coming in from? Where are you going? we call to the traveler. Enchanting\, unsettling\, and wholly original\, Flights is a master storyteller’s answer. \n**We offer a 20% discount on Flights from now until the meeting date.** \nBy purchasing your book at Librairie Drawn & Quarterly you help support free events like this one\, independent publishing and retailing\, our neighborhood\, and authors both local and from around the world who depend on independent bookstores for their livelihood. You also get to take advantage of a great discount! Your support is appreciated.
