Description
Bigger. Not better. Older. Not wiser. Queenie Jenkins is working on it.
Live on stage, award-winning author Candice Carty-Williams will discuss her new novel Queenie Is Working On It, exploring what it means to be a woman today, navigating a racing biological clock, the push and pull of a situationship you can’t quite quit, and the relentless pressure of trying to hold it all together.
She’ll discuss the contradictions of modern womanhood and won’t shy away from the difficult questions: What does it mean to want, or not want, children when the world won’t stop asking? How do you move on when your heart is in pieces and your head won’t catch up? And how is it possible to feel so stuck when you’re working so hard to get it right?
Scalpel-sharp, poignant and hilarious, this is Candice at her very finest, as she shines a dazzling light on the realities of being a woman today. You’ll have the chance to put your own questions to the author, and the event will be followed by a book signing.
