SUMMARY:Moon Palace Queer Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Event by Moon Palace Books \nPublic  ·  Join us for Queer Book Club every second Wednesday from 7-8pm at Quatrefoil Library\, 1220 East Lake Street\, Minneapolis\, MN 55407! (Please note that in the summer we will only meet at Quatrefoil if it rains. Otherwise we will meet at Brackett Park.) \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nQueer Book Club April\n\n\n\nWednesday Apr 9th\, 2025\n\n\n7:00 PM\n\n\n–\n\n\n8:00 PM\n\n\n Quatrefoil Library\, 1220 East Lake Street\, Minneapolis\, MN 55407\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for Queer Book Club on Wednesday\, April 9th\, at 7:00pm at Quatrefoil Library\, 1220 East Lake Street\, Minneapolis\, MN 55407. We’ll be discussing Blood Orange by Mx. Yaffa. Anyone is welcome to join whether you’ve read the whole book or just skimmed a few pages. We meet the second Wednesdays of every month! \n“Blood Orange” is a highly emotional\, important and timely poetry collection by Mx. Yaffa (They/She)\, a trans Muslim displaced Indigenous Palestinian. Their writings probe the yearning for home\, belonging\, mental health\, queerness\, transness\, and other dimensions of marginalization while nurturing dreams of utopia against the background of ongoing displacement and genocide of indigenous Palestinians. \nThis highly charged and cathartic body of work confronts the anguish and loss inflicted by genocide but also embraces a vision of a world free of it. The poems within “Blood Orange” were a means of working through and processing the grief caused by recent events and serve as an act of protest and defiance against settler colonialism as a whole. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuy Books

SUMMARY:Moon Palace Queer Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Event by Moon Palace Books \nPublic  ·  Join us for Queer Book Club every second Wednesday from 7-8pm at Quatrefoil Library\, 1220 East Lake Street\, Minneapolis\, MN 55407! (Please note that in the summer we will only meet at Quatrefoil if it rains. Otherwise we will meet at Brackett Park.) \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nQueer Book Club April\n\n\n\nWednesday Apr 9th\, 2025\n\n\n7:00 PM\n\n\n–\n\n\n8:00 PM\n\n\n Quatrefoil Library\, 1220 East Lake Street\, Minneapolis\, MN 55407\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for Queer Book Club on Wednesday\, April 9th\, at 7:00pm at Quatrefoil Library\, 1220 East Lake Street\, Minneapolis\, MN 55407. We’ll be discussing Blood Orange by Mx. Yaffa. Anyone is welcome to join whether you’ve read the whole book or just skimmed a few pages. We meet the second Wednesdays of every month! \n“Blood Orange” is a highly emotional\, important and timely poetry collection by Mx. Yaffa (They/She)\, a trans Muslim displaced Indigenous Palestinian. Their writings probe the yearning for home\, belonging\, mental health\, queerness\, transness\, and other dimensions of marginalization while nurturing dreams of utopia against the background of ongoing displacement and genocide of indigenous Palestinians. \nThis highly charged and cathartic body of work confronts the anguish and loss inflicted by genocide but also embraces a vision of a world free of it. The poems within “Blood Orange” were a means of working through and processing the grief caused by recent events and serve as an act of protest and defiance against settler colonialism as a whole. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuy Books
