Next Tuesday, AE District invites you to the inaugural meeting of the Black Umbrella Book Club, a new literary group meeting around the great big table at their space in the Design District.
Hosted by Matt Gajewski (of our beloved Pure Imagination), Vanessa Garcia (The Krane) and yours truly, we hope to sort of pick up where the Sweat Books Book Club left off…
No previous reading required for this first meeting, but copies of the first selection – “How To Leave Hialeah” by Jennine Capó Crucet – will be available. The meeting is from 7-9pm with yummy healthy food provided by Pasha’s and caffeinated drinks by Bustelo. It’s free of course so come get bookish with us Tuesday night!
I actually already have a copy! Maybe I’ll stop by. BTW, here is a Q&A we did with the author: http://www.miaminewtimes.com/2009-09-17/culture/hialeah-homecoming-jennine-capo-crucet-and-patricia-engel
