Folks with higher-tier memberships are prioritized by the Meetup system. As organizers, we don't have a say in it and we don't change the order in which the people are waitlisted. We have added an additional night for our meetup which happens on Wednesday to help cater to more participants. Please feel free to sign up on the night that is most convenient for you. Both will have the same agenda for our reading and discussion. [Our Discord Server:](https://discord.gg/9jjufDeZ5Q) join our community to chat and hang in between meetups! You will also find our story under discussion posted there each week. [KUT's Sean Saldana, a member of our meetup, recently did a story about us: read here!](https://www.kut.org/life-arts/2025-10-02/new-yorker-reading-club-austin-tx-central-market) Interested in being a part of meaningful conversations on life, love, and contemporary short fiction? Are you a bookish type that loves to keep up with The New Yorker's short story of the week? Miss reading and having friends who read, but don't have the time to linger over a 300-page novel? Welcome: We have been searching for y'all and would be pleased to co-create a fun lil literary community together! Come join our group weekly for a lively, thoughtful in-person discussion of the latest and greatest work of short fiction from The New Yorker. Whether you're a longtime lover of literature or just curious to see what all the fuss is about when it comes to Murakami and pals, we’d love to have you either way; reading, like most everything else in life, is just more fun with friends! **Please note that this is an inclusive community space, welcoming of LGBTQIA+, queer, transgender, and nonbinary people.** Event attendees will be asked to share their preferred pronouns and to respect the preferred pronouns shared by other discussion participants. **People of color seeking a diverse community and reading selection are also especially encouraged to attend.** Not that they're perfect (or that we are, for that matter), but part of the reason why we read The New Yorker's short stories is that the editorial staff has done a good job in recent years of publishing writers of color and promoting, more generally, a wide-ranging selection of American & international literary voices. Our reading group is also fairly diverse in terms of ethnic and cultural background.

BE PREPARED FOR RUBBER DUCKY RACES AND GAMES Activities offered during the meeting are: Exercises anyone can do! Information on staying healthy and alert! Brain Booster activities! Music! Spiritual support! New Friends! Discussions on past and current events! Book Club! Games! Other Fun things! Participants can choose which activities they want to join.

This, her mother has told her, is the only way to get a "louding voice" -- the ability to speak for herself and decide her own future. But instead, Adunni's father sells her to be the third wife of a local man who is eager for her to bear him a son and heir. When Adunni runs away to the city, hoping to make a better life, she finds that the only other option before her is servitude to a wealthy family. As a yielding daughter, a subservient wife, and a powerless slave, Adunni is told, by words and deeds, that she is nothing. But while misfortunes might muffle her voice for a time, they cannot mute it. And when she realizes that she must stand up not only for herself, but for other girls, for the ones who came before her and were lost, and for the next girls, who will inevitably follow, she finds the resolve to speak, however she can--in a whisper, in song, in broken English--until she is heard
