Reading Room: The Lonely City by Olivia Laing with The Coffee Shop Counsellor

Note: This event has been cancelled.

We’ll still be diving into The Lonely City by Olivia Laing, exploring solitude, art, and connection. If you’d like to preview the book or enjoy dedicated reading time. Grab a copy from our shelves, immerse yourself in the book, and explore the paintings it discusses.

We’re thrilled to partner with Champaca bookstore for this event!

Note: You don’t need to own a copy of the book, we’ll have a few available for you to read at the event, provide you return it undamaged.

We’ll have some quiet reading time and then a 1 hour session to discuss the introduction and the thoughts, memories and sensations it may have brought up.

Those interested can then sign up for the full session later.
