Inklings New Fantasy Book Club

Thu, Nov 12 · 6:30 PM Takoma Park DC Library

The Takoma Park Neighborhood Branch Library hosts the “Inklings” New Fantasy Book Club, named in honor of the originator of the genre – J.R.R. Tolkien’s own fantasy book club. We meet in-person to discuss the works of current fantasy authors, with a focus on authors who use the freedom of the fantasy genre to subvert institutional and cultural norms. Meetings are in-person at the Takoma Park Neighborhood Library in the downstairs meeting room. We meet every second Thursday of the month through the end of 2024 from 6:30pm to 7:30pm. Audience: Adults (20+) All materials are available through the DCPL Catalog in a variety of formats.
