About the event
Join us for a special edition of The Lavender Reader Book Club featuring a visit from Elizabeth Chakrabarty, author of Lessons in Love and Other Crimes.
This month’s book club pick, Chakrabarty’s critically acclaimed debut novel, explores themes of race, gender, and sexuality through the lens of a gripping queer love story intertwined with the devastating impacts of race hate crime. It’s a powerful, hybrid work that combines fiction with reflective essays on resilience, love, and the fight against hate.
Don’t miss the opportunity to hear directly from Elizabeth as she discusses her inspiration for the novel, shares insights about her writing process, and answers your questions.
