Queer Lit
Every month, we invite you to immerse yourself in the diverse and captivating world of LGBTQIA+ literature. From historical epics to contemporary tales, we’ll be exploring a wide range of genres to cater to all tastes.
For our upcoming discussion, we are thrilled to announce our featured book: “The Fates” by Rosie Garland.
“Before Gods and mortals, there were The Fates – three sisters born out of Nyx’s darkness, destined to weave the lives, and deaths, of humankind for eternity.
But immortality is a heavy burden, and Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos are captivated by the gloriously human lives of the mortals below, especially those of the great warrior Atalanta and her ill-fated lover, Meleager.
However, being a Goddess of Fate doesn’t make you a master of it. Will these three sisters find a way to free the couple, and themselves, from their destinies? Or will they be bound by Fate forever?”
Copies of “The Fates” are available now at Queer Lit, so grab yours and mark your calendars for an evening of insightful conversation and literary exploration.
