SALON: Featuring All Fours by Miranda July

This 2024 "New York Times Bestseller" by novelist, screenwriter, and director Miranda July is a courageous and provocative novel about an unnamed 45-year-old woman who abruptly halts a cross-country trip from Los Angeles to New York, instead checking into a motel in a small town. What begins as a brief detour becomes an extended, existential pause that challenges her ideas of desire, identity, aging, and autonomy. Told with July’s signature blend of vulnerability, humor, and absurdity, the novel blurs the line between fiction and memoir, plumbing the depths of a woman’s inner life as she navigates middle age, life's purpose, and artistic reinvention.

Readers are also invited to read A Room of One's Own (1929) by Virginia so that we might discuss how these two works, nearly a century apart, explore enduring themes of importance to women.

Thinking Cap Theatre presents SALON, an ongoing Readers’ Series featuring LGBTQ+ and Feminist Texts (nonfiction, novels, plays) curated by TCT's Artistic Director.

The aim of the series is to provide a sustained space to foster friendships and dialogue on themes of historical and ongoing importance to LGBTQ+ women and straight allies. Now more than ever, we need conversation, community, and allyship!
