Tuesday Readers discuss "The Secret Lives of Church Ladies" by Deesha Philyaw
Tuesday, November 28, 2023
Everyone and anyone is welcome to join us for one or several of our meetings, with no commitment, for friendly conversations designed to stir the mind.
Tuesday Readers meetings are held in person, typically on the third Tuesday of the month, at 11:00am. Please bring your lunch or a refreshment to share (not necessary!).
If you are unable to participate in person, you may contact us a day in advance and we will set up our Meeting Owl to allow you to Zoom from home. If you would like to be added to our contact list, please email library@orono.org.
The Secret Lives of Church Ladies explores the raw and tender places where Black women and girls dare to follow their desires and pursue a momentary reprieve from being good. The nine stories in this collection feature four generations of characters grappling with who they want to be in the world, caught as they are between the church’s double standards and their own needs and passions. - Publisher
