This June we are reading The Infinite Sadness of Small Appliances’, by Glenn Dixon.
In a self-running, smart house, a young and sentient Roomba listens as her owner, Harold, reads aloud to his dying wife, Edie. Mesmerized by To Kill a Mockingbird and craving the human connection she witnesses in Harold's stories, the little vacuum renames herself Scout and embarks on a journey of self-discovery.
But when Edie passes away, Scout and her fellow sentient appliances discover that there are sinister forces in their midst. The omnipresent Grid, which monitors every household in the City, seeks to remove Harold from his home, a place he's lived in for fifty years.
With the help of Adrian, a neighborhood boy who grows close to Scout and Harold, as well as Kate, Harold and Edie's formerly estranged daughter, the humans and the appliances must come together to outwit the all-controlling Grid lest they risk losing everything they hold dear.
For more details, please get in touch with one of our well-read staff members.
Sunday the 14th of June from 10am-11am
Join us for this months book club pick: Strangers by Belle Burden
Through the introspection of her life and marriage, Belle Burden tries to make sense of the sudden and cruel ending to her “perfect marriage”. In doing so, you witness the transformation of a shy, quiet girl (occasionally compliant in the name of love), to a powerful, brave woman. One who has learned to use her voice to expose the patriarchal structures that have forced women to be discreet and compliant for far too long.
A must-read memoir of self-discovery.
It will take place on Sunday the 14th of June from 10am-11am at the Inner Cravings cafe in the plaza upstairs, where coffee and sweet treats will be provided!
Come in store or contact our team on (02) 9958 1929 or email us at northbridge@bookfacestores.com.au to RSVP!
We hope to see you there!
