A reading group run by the Small Trans Library, with the express purpose of reading and sharing texts by trans authors.

This event will focus on collaborative close readings of a variety of alternating short texts. We will provide PDFs and print-outs of the work, and the event will begin with a live reading of the text with a view to including all modes of reading and engagement

The pieces we read will be decided collaboratively as we go. There is no clear-cut parameters for what we read, but the main point of these events will be a communal engagement with texts by/for/about trans people and trans lives.

The space will attempt to offer a warm and comfortable environment to read and discuss writing, unimpeded by the constraints of capitalist expectation. We're excited to welcome you to the space, snacks provided.
