January Book Club - Waiting for Godot @ Holy Ghost

Come read & drink with us!

For January, we are reading Waiting for Godot by Samuel Beckett.

"The story revolves around two seemingly homeless men simply waiting for someone—or something—named Godot. Vladimir and Estragon wait near a tree, inhabiting a drama spun of their own consciousness. The result is a comical wordplay of poetry, dreamscapes, and nonsense, which has been interpreted as mankind’s inexhaustible search for meaning. Beckett’s language pioneered an expressionistic minimalism that captured the existential post-World War II Europe. His play remains one of the most magical and beautiful allegories of our time."

As a reminder, this meetup's intentions are to be out and about in the city, exploring new places for drinks and discussions about books. Will post a location ASAP. Taking recommendations for locations if you have one in mind!
