SUMMARY:Sheffield Feminist Book Club: August author special with Caroline Magennis
DESCRIPTION:August’s author event \n\n\n\nJoin us for our latest author event\, where we’ll sit down with Caroline Magennis\, to discuss her fantastic book Harpy: A Childfree Manifesto on Wednesday 14 August\, 7-9:00 pm at La Biblioteka\, Sheffield. \n\n\n\nBits to remember: \n\n\n\nThis event is open to all and you’ll get an opportunity to ask Caroline questions\, get your book signed and meet plenty of other book lovers! \n\n\n\nDate – Wednesday 14 August \n\n\n\nTime – 7-9:00pm \n\n\n\nVenue – La Biblioteka\, 61 Eyre Lane\, Sheffield\, S1 3GF \n\n\n\nAbout the book:Each generation has more childfree women than the one before. For many\, it is an active decision made for a wide range of reasons.Despite this growing trend\, we continue to live in a society where women are often judged for deciding to remain child-free – for not conforming to narrow expectations. For being a Harpy. \n\n\n\nIn this timely and thoughtful book\, Caroline Magennis looks beyond the often-divisive conversation around women who choose to be childfree and offers an alternative message of hope and celebration.With humour and intelligence\, she explores why motherhood isn’t right for everybody and how any woman – whether a parent or childfree – can live a full life\, while also reminding the reader that your freedoms and the right to autonomy should never be taken for granted. \n\n\n\nAbout Caroline Magennis: \n\n\n\nCaroline Magennis is an academic and writer based in Manchester. Her writing has appeared in The Independent\, Prospect Magazine and The Irish Times. Her book\, Northern Irish Writing After the Troubles\, has been named the joint winner of the British Association for Contemporary Literary Studies Monograph Prize 2022. \n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nTickets for this event are £13. If you cannot afford them then just drop us an email at: sheffieldfembookclub@gmail.com and we’ll see what we can do. \n\n\n\nRefund policy: \n\n\n\nWe are over the moon that our events are becoming so popular\, so because of that we have made are operating a no refund policy. We are more than happy for you to use your ticket for a future book club\, or to give your ticket to a fellow book club member\, but as of 2024 – we will no longer giving refunds. Apologies in advance! \n\n\n\nSheffield Feminist Book Club House Rules: \n\n\n\nWe welcome feminists from all walks of life and backgrounds\, and this group is open to everyone – we want this to be a fully inclusive space; \n\n\n\nYou don’t need to be an ‘expert feminist’ (whatever that means) to be involved – we want to read books that everyone can enjoy\, and that cater to people’s different experiences and understandings of feminism; \n\n\n\nThis is primarily a social space\, for meeting and getting to know like-minded people – so while feminism can be a heavy topic\, we hope to keep this more on the fun side; \n\n\n\nThis is a judgement free zone – don’t belittle or undermine other members\, or those who don’t have the same ideas as you. Don’t shut down other people’s views and be respectful; \n\n\n\nIf you feel like anyone goes against any of these values\, let us know!
