Join us to discuss A Broken People's Playlist by Chimeka Garricks
For the last meeting of the year, we're making it a bit festive by combining it with a potluck. More details via the Signal Group.

About us:
The Sisterhood Book Club meets once a month to discuss books by authors of African descent. The books are usually a starting point for deeper discussions about life. We meet in person, either at one of our members' homes or in cosy, kid-friendly places in Zurich.

About the book:
A Broken People’s Playlist is set to the soundtrack of life, comprised of twelve music-inspired tales about love, the human condition, micro-moments, and the search for meaning and sometimes, redemption. It is also Chimeka Garricks’s love letter to his native city, Port Harcourt, introducing us to a cast of indelible characters in these loosely interlocked tales.
There is the teenage wannabe-DJ eager to play his first gig even as his family disastrously falls apart—who reappears many years later as an unhappy middle-aged man drunk-calling his ex-wife; a man who throws a living funeral for his dying brother; three friends who ponder penis captivus and one’s peculiar erectile dysfunction; a troubled woman who tries to find her peace-place in the world, helped by a headful of songs and a pot of ginger tea.
