Event Description
Join us for a book discussion on Drinking Coffee Elsewhere written by ZZ Packer, graduate of the Iowa Writer’s Workshop. Several tales are set in black communities in the South and explore the identity crises of God-fearing, economically disenfranchised teens and young women while highlighting the complex emotions involved in having to make difficult choices.
