Join us on the 4th Thursday of each month from 5-6pm for the IWFC Calgary Chapter Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Book Club.

The next selection for IWFC Calgary's Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Book Club will be Old Babes in the Woods by Margaret Atwood and will be hosted by Aritha van Herk.

"The two intrepid sisters of the title story grapple with loss and memory on a perfect summer evening; "Impatient Griselda" explores alienation and miscommunication with a fresh twist on a folkloric classic; and "My Evil Mother" touches on the fantastical, examining a mother-daughter relationship in which the mother purports to be a witch. At the heart of the collection are seven extraordinary stories that follow a married couple across the decades, the moments big and small that make up a long life of uncommon love—and what comes after."

Please RSVP to confirm your attendance.
