The Quiet Place Book Club: 'Sterling Karat Gold' by Isabel Waidner

Join us for the February meeting of The Quiet Place Book Club, where we will discuss Sterling Karat Gold by Isabel Waidner.

Sterling is arrested one morning without having done anything wrong. Plunged into a terrifying and nonsensical world, Sterling–with the help of their three best friends–must defy bullfighters, football players and time-travelling spaceships in order to exonerate themselves and to hold the powers that be to account.

'We join football-shirt-skirted, velvet-and-montera-clad Sterling in a fiction replete with time travel ... and queer working-class histories', has written Shola von Reinhold, 'indeed, in a ever obtuse and hostile Britain, where the flattering of queer and trans expression is borderline de riguer, Sterling makes me feel heartened and defiant in all its revelry and multiplicity and deftness: and here in the UK! and happening now!'

You can purchase a copy of Sterling Karat Gold from Fox Lane Books. Please register in advance for this meeting. 

Everyone is welcome!
