Dani's Queer Bar x All She Wrote Books Book Club: Carmen Maria Machado's IN THE DREAMHOUSE

Join All She Wrote Books on Tuesday,&nbsp;April 15th at 7:00pm at Dani's Queer Bar for a discussion of In the Dreamhouse&nbsp;by Carmen Maria Machado! According to Newsday, "In the Dreamhouse gleamingly smashes our notion of memoir, relocating Machado’s genre-bending mastery from fiction to nonfiction. As with her short story collection, an intoxicating mix of fabulism and horror, sci-fi and gutting realism, Machado’s playfulness on the page is intoxicating." Seats are&nbsp;limited, so snag yours quick! Worried about finding the book?&nbsp;We've got you covered! Grab a copy through registration for the event, at <a href="http://bookshop.org/">Bookshop.org</a>, or <a href="http://libro.fm/">Libro.fm</a>. Can't make it?&nbsp;No worries! Let us know ASAP so we can release your spot to someone eagerly waiting on the waitlist. Don't miss out- register now! Remember:&nbsp;This event has limited capacity, so grab your ticket and claim your seat before it's too late! We can't wait to see you there! ✨ About In the Dreamhouse In the Dreamhouse is Carmen Maria Machado’s engrossing and wildly innovative account of a relationship gone bad, and a bold dissection of the mechanisms and cultural representations of psychological abuse. Tracing the full arc of a harrowing relationship with a charismatic but volatile woman, Machado struggles to make sense of how what happened to her shaped the person she was becoming. Please Note: In the Dreamhouse does contain scenes of sexual harassment and sexual abuse. We encourage you to take care as you read, and will do our best to care for you during our discussion. About Carmen Maria Machado Carmen Maria Machado's debut short story collection, Her Body and Other Parties, was a finalist for the National Book Award and the winner of the Bard Fiction Prize, the Lambda Literary Award for Lesbian Fiction, the Brooklyn Public Library Literature Prize, the Shirley Jackson Award, and the National Book Critics Circle's John Leonard Prize. In 2018, the New York Times listed Her Body and Other Parties as a member of "The New Vanguard," one of "15 remarkable books by women that are shaping the way we read and write fiction in the 21st century." Her essays, fiction, and criticism have appeared in the New Yorker, the New York Times, Granta, Harper’s Bazaar, Tin House, VQR, Conjunctions, McSweeney's Quarterly Concern, The Believer, Guernica, Best American Science Fiction &amp; Fantasy, Best American Nonrequired Reading, and elsewhere. She holds an MFA from the Iowa Writers’ Workshop and has been awarded fellowships and residencies from the Guggenheim Foundation, Michener-Copernicus Foundation, Elizabeth George Foundation, CINTAS Foundation, Yaddo, Hedgebrook, and the Millay Colony for the Arts.
