A Feminist Book Fortnight event

Speculative fiction/sci-fi/fantasy – whatever you call it, there has been a huge upsurge of interest in books that challenge norms using this genre of writing.  Here at Five Leaves we have gone from one shelf in the shop to a whole bay devoted to speculative fiction.

Books dealing with feminism and social justice issues, written by a diverse range of writers and featuring an equally diverse range of characters, are driving discussion of social issues for our readers.  Modern feminist retellings of older myths (e.g. Madeleine Miller, Natalie Haynes) also fall in to this area of interest for our customers.so are included too.

Come along and join us for a chat about books in this genre.  Bring your favourite book!

Tickets £3, booking essential as space will be limited.
