Book lovers are invited out to the Burnaby Public Library’s next Non-Fiction Book of the Month discussion circle.
The meeting is on Tuesday, Aug. 28 from 7 to 8 p.m. at the Bob Prittie (Metrotown) branch of the library, at 6100 Willingdon Ave.
This month’s book is Tomboy Survival Guide, by writer and activist Ivan Coyote.
“Coyote recounts their past as a free-spirited tomboy and maps their journey through gender landscapes and labels to a place of self-acceptance,” says a write-up from the library. (Coyote uses the gender-neutral pronoun.) “Ivan Coyote is a great storyteller who tells moving stories about a loving family and gender issues with compassion, courage and humour.”
The program is free, but space is limited. Anyone interested should register in person at the Metrotown library or call 604-436-5400. Take your library card to pick up a copy of the book at the second-floor reference desk.
