Lit with Liberate: Rubyfruit Jungle

Lit with Liberate - our LGBTQ-themed reading group - returns in ​June with Rubyfruit Jungle by Rita Mae Brown. 

A landmark coming-of-age novel that launched the career of one of America's most distinctive voices, Rubyfruit Jungle remains a transformative work more than forty years after its original publication. In bawdy, moving prose, Rita Mae Brown tells the story of Molly Bolt, the adoptive daughter of a dirt-poor Southern couple who boldly forges her own path in America. With her startling beauty and cracking wit, Molly finds that women are drawn to her wherever she goes - and she refuses to apologise for loving them back. This literary milestone continues to resonate with its message about being true to yourself and, against the odds, living happily ever after.

This is a free reading group that is open to all. There’s no need to book in advance. If you haven’t read the book but want to come along for a taster, please do!
