READING GROUP: Trojan Home

Sat 26 November 2-3.30pm // At Turf Gallery // Free, with free refreshments.

 

Join us for our reading group to discuss a beautiful array of texts chosen by the exhibition artist, Honza Zamojski.

The novel ‘The Road’ by Cormac McCarthy, a Pullitzer Prize-winning post-apocalyptic tale of a father and son crossing a desert landscape with time running out.

A short poem by Stanislaw Baranczak ‘If porcelain, then only the kind’ which ends with: ‘Did no one ever tell you that you will never feel at home in the world?’

An article reviewing the work of Stanislaw Lem, the author of ‘Solaris’, estimated in 1976 to be the most widely read science fiction writer in the world.

And finally, Joy Division’s song ‘Heart and Soul’.

Join us for discussion and free refreshments at Turf, Keeley Road, Croydon CR01TF

WORKSHOP CODE:

Turf aims to be a space where all are welcomed & respected. We ask all attendees to align with this spirit when booking and support us in creating a welcoming & collaborative atmosphere together. We ask that everyone is;

  • Kind and respectful in our language and behaviour towards others. Turf is a space which is anti racism, sexism, homophobia and ableism.
  • Considerate of others’ time; allowing others room to speak & engage.
  • Respectful of the space itself as belonging to many people, treating the space & objects with care.
  • Attend wherever possible: In 2023, around 30% of people booking free tickets didn’t turn up! Our free tickets are limited and in high demand. Every person who doesn’t turn up means someone else can’t attend, so please let us know if you can’t make it to free up a space. If you don’t attend twice or more without letting us know, you may be restricted from booking again.
