About this Event
Bookends Classic Literature Book Club: Notes of a Crocodile by Qiu Miaojin
📍 Whose Books | Dallas, TX
đź“… Friday, February 13 | 7:00 PM
Join us for the February meeting of Bookends Classic Literature Book Club, led by Sean, as we dive into Notes of a Crocodile by Qiu Miaojin, translated by Bonnie Huie.
First published in the 1990s, Notes of a Crocodile is a cult classic of queer literature—an intimate, fragmented, and emotionally resonant portrait of youth, alienation, desire, and self-discovery. Through the voice of Lazi, Qiu Miaojin captures the intensity of queer coming-of-age with unflinching honesty, offering readers a deeply personal exploration of identity, loneliness, and belonging.
This discussion is ideal for readers interested in classic literature, translated works, and LGBTQ+ narratives that challenge form and convention. Whether you’re revisiting this text or encountering it for the first time, you’re invited into a thoughtful, reflective conversation centered on shared reading and collective interpretation.
Support local by getting your book from WhoseBooks.shop, listening on Libro.fm, or downloading via Bookshop.org—all of which support your local indie bookstore. Library readers, we love you too!
