Millennials STILL READ!!
20 Somethings is our book club for millennials!
Join us as we discuss the book of the month All About Love by Bell Hooks.
All About Love offers radical new ways to think about love by showing its interconnectedness in our private and public lives. In eleven concise chapters, hooks explains how our everyday notions of what it means to give and receive love often fail us, and how these ideals are established in early childhood. She offers a rethinking of self-love (without narcissism) that will bring peace and compassion to our personal and professional lives, and asserts the place of love to end struggles between individuals, in communities, and among societies. Moving from the cultural to the intimate, hooks notes the ties between love and loss and challenges the prevailing notion that romantic love is the most important love of all.
We will be meeting at Union Coffee (3705 Cedar Springs Rd). See ya there!
