See all- Queer Book Club - Stone Butch Blues by Leslie FeinbergCommonwealth Bar, Brooklyn, NY
**Welcome to Queer Book Club!
We read books about, for and written by queer people! Follow us on Instagram @queer_book_clubWe had a great time Wednesday at Commonwealth talking about smutt and astronauts. For next month we chose to read, Stone Butch Blues by Leslie Feinberg.
Our next meetup will be held on Wednesday September 25th at Commonwealth in Park Slope BK
This month we will be reading Stone Butch Blues by Leslie Feinberg.**
Woman or man? This internationally acclaimed novel looks at the world through the eyes of Jess Goldberg, a masculine girl growing up in the "Ozzie and Harriet" McCarthy era and coming out as a young butch lesbian in the pre-Stonewall gay drag bars of a blue-collar town. Stone Butch Blues traces a propulsive journey, powerfully evoking history and politics while portraying an extraordinary protagonist full of longing, vulnerability, and working-class grit. This once-underground classic takes the reader on a roller-coaster ride of gender transformation and exploration and ultimately speaks to the heart of anyone who has ever suffered or gloried in being different.
