Queer Book Club #34 – ‘In Memoriam’ by Alice Winn
Queer Book Club #34 – ‘In Memoriam’ by Alice Winn
Join us for dinner and discussion about queer books! For our next book, we will be reading **‘In Memoriam’** by **Alice Winn.** **Blurb** In 1914, war feels far away to Henry Gaunt and Sidney Ellwood. They're too young to enlist, and anyway, Gaunt is fighting his own private battle - an all-consuming infatuation with the dreamy, poetic Ellwood - not having a clue that his best friend is in love with him, always has been. When Gaunt's mother asks him to enlist in the British army to protect the family from anti-German attacks, he signs up immediately, relieved to escape his overwhelming feelings. But Ellwood and their classmates soon follow him into the horrors of trenches. Though Ellwood and Gaunt find fleeting moments of solace in one another, their friends are dying in front of them, and at any moment they could be next. **An epic tale of the devastating tragedies of war and the forbidden romance that blooms in its grip, *In Memoriam* is a breathtaking debut.** **The Plan** 19:30 Meeting @ the restaurant 19:45 Dinner & discussion 21:15 Choosing a book for May 21:30 End **Dinner** The name of the restaurant will be announced in the WhatsApp group chat. **What to do** 1\.

Using Philosophy to Cope with Current Events
Using Philosophy to Cope with Current Events
So this month's prompt is more general. I think we can all agree that we are living in "unique" times that require coping skills. I think that one role and/or purpose of philosophy is to help us deal with our daily lives and our "unique" times. So, let's share our feelings and thoughts about which philosopher/philosophy we turn to in order to deal with our crazy events. Who/what helps you stay focused in your daily life and helps you sleep at night. I find that Stoicism with a little philosophical pessimism mixed in goes a long way in helping me deal with what I see as very destructive, fearful and mean spirited public policies at both the state and federal levels. Hope to see you on March 28th!
