Event Details

Join us for our book club, discussing books by Black authors. We are creating this space for all readers to share & learn about the Black experience, and books that reflect that perspective.

The book for October 29th is Sweet, Soft, Plenty Rhythm  by Laura Warrell. 

It’s 2013, and Circus Palmer, a forty-year-old Boston-based trumpet player and old-school ladies’ man, lives for his music and refuses to be tied down. Before a gig in Miami, he learns that the woman who is secretly closest to his heart, the free-spirited drummer Maggie, is pregnant by him. Instead of facing the necessary conversation, Circus flees, setting off a chain of interlocking revelations from the various women in his life.
