NOVEMBER’S BOOK 📚 : GOD HELP THE CHILD

- TONI MORRISON

Books & Beers! Literature & Libations! Alcohol & Alliterations! We are here to provide it all with Teddy’s Book Club, meeting on the second Sunday of each month at 6:30 pm. Amanda will be hosting, and we’ll discuss the monthly selections and choose what we’d like to read for the upcoming month. We hope you’ll join us - but even if you can’t, please still get the book and talk to Amanda about it! Or - even better - strike up a conversation with someone else who is also reading it this month.

Bride - our blue-black protagonist - was abandoned by her father and never touched by her mother. But she’s seemingly beyond the trauma, in a loving relationship, and running a successful skincare company. Until her boyfriend leaves her, and she is maybe regressing into her childhood body?? This final novel by an American master is a modern-day fairy tale with shades of Brothers Grimm that explores victimhood, personal responsibility, racism, colorism, love, and trauma.
