SUMMARY:Giovanni's Room\, by James Baldwin (virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Join me on June 15th (pride month!) at 7pm EST to discuss the i
 conic queer novella Giovanni's Room by James Baldwin. The novella begins i
 n the 1950s as David\, an American ex-pat living in France\, thinks about 
 his ex-fiancée Hella’s return trip to the United States\, while his ex-
 lover\, an Italian immigrant named Giovanni\, is set to be executed in the
  morning. In our discussion\, we'll contrast the modern queer experience w
 ith Baldwin's understanding from the 1950s -- and reflect on the consequen
 ces of denying inner truths.
