What I’m reading
I’m diving back into Who Are We Now? by Blaise Agüera y Arcas, which I’ve brought to a couple other parties as well. It’s like nothing else I’ve ever read.
I am going to interview Blaise at a free event on June 1 after the brunch reading party that day. So partly, I’m going through the book again tonight to think of things to ask him.
I’m also going through it again because I am writing trivia questions for a FrizzLit happy hour that starts right after that free event on June 1.
Who Are We Now? will be one of the trivia categories; the other two trivia categories will be Herman Melville and Virginia Woolf.
The FrizzLit happy hour on June 1 goes from 4-6 pm and reservations are required. Details here.
