Do you like science fiction, fantasy, horror, or other speculative books? Meet fellow weird readers to discuss strange and thought-provoking fiction and non-fiction at Weird Book Club, an adult book discussion group that meets at Midwest Coast Brewing on the 3rd Wednesday of the month.
This month's title is I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman.
Deep underground, thirty-nine women live imprisoned in a cage. Watched over by guards, the women have no memory of how they got there, no notion of time, and only vague recollection of their lives before. As the burn of electric light merges day into night and numberless years pass, a young girl - the fortieth prisoner - sits alone and outcast in the corner. Soon she will show herself to be the key to the others' escape and survival in the strange world that awaits them above ground. --Publisher
