🏳️🌈 August Book Club: On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous
Details
Join CDMX Pride Pages for our August book club as we discuss Ocean Vuong’s On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous, a powerful and lyrical coming-of-age novel told as a letter from a son to his mother.
📅 Tuesday, August 25
🕖 7:00–9:00 PM

Blending personal history with fiction, the novel follows a young gay Vietnamese American as he reflects on family, immigration, masculinity, first love, and the lasting impact of trauma and tenderness. Poetic, intimate, and deeply moving, On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous explores the ways language, memory, and love shape who we become.
This will be a discussion-based event, so please come having finished the book. Whether you're a longtime member or joining us for the first time, we look forward to another thoughtful evening of conversation and connection with fellow LGBTQ+ readers.
