About this event
The monthly Queer Book Club digs into Jeremy Atherton Lin's National Book Critics Circle Award-winning memoir—a hybrid love story and queer history lesson about two men navigating the Defense of Marriage Act and undocumented migration in 1996. Expect a room of readers ready to talk about outlaw romance, civil rights, and what it means to make a home in the shadows. This is the kind of book that stays with you.
