Over a drink with sympathetic friends, she lists all the reasons why she wants to have a baby, beginning with a story about the intoxicating, abusive relationship with an ex-wife that she barely survived. She ponders how to fill the gaping void left in the wake of such horrific domestic violence. What’s the next most violent thing a woman can do to herself? she asks. Have a baby.Soon, her story opens other doors to the past—the seemingly idyllic childhood she spent under her father’s roof; the mentorship, and judgment, of female writers whose children she has reared; and the man, her first love, who now seems to be offering her a second chance. Each unraveling thread reveals the complex tangle of thrill and pain, tradition and progress that has led her to this moment, this calling. Is it time for her to become a mother?K Chiucarello’s stunningly original debut novel explores the brutality of gendered violence, including the gossip that polices women’s choices and the conventions that determine which women have the right to tell their story, and how. With wit, candor, and unprecedented nuance, Nanny Nanny upends every expectation of a book about motherhood, queering the biological clock and subverting narrative bounds.K Chiucarello is a writer living in the Hudson Valley. Nanny Nanny is their first novel.Jia Tolentino is a staff writer at the New Yorker and the author of the essay collection Trick Mirror. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/brooklyn/in-store-k-chiucarello-nanny-nanny-w-jia-tolentino/100002003032148075 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, workshops, magic-show - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Doors Open At: 6:30 PM - Duration: 1 hour - Location: Books Are Magic Montague - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 10.89, max: 30.49, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Brooklyn - **state**: NY - **country**: United States - **location**: Books Are Magic Montague - **lat**: 40.6945995 - **long**: -73.994642 - **full address**: Books Are Magic Montague, 122 Montague Street, Brooklyn, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: In-Store: K Chiucarello: Nanny Nanny w/ Jia Tolentino - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/2a8872083c64de0f34e6b93c025265a2d7b659d8aa61a4c4deaf1cb49e59233d-rimg-w1200-h600-dc486838-gmir.jpg?v=1791345066 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is In-Store: K Chiucarello: Nanny Nanny w/ Jia Tolentino being held? - **A:** In-Store: K Chiucarello: Nanny Nanny w/ Jia Tolentino takes place on Thu, 19 Nov, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Thu, 19 Nov, 2026 at 08:00 pm at Books Are Magic Montague, 122 Montague Street, Brooklyn, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing In-Store: K Chiucarello: Nanny Nanny w/ Jia Tolentino? - **A:** In-Store: K Chiucarello: Nanny Nanny w/ Jia Tolentino is organized by Books Are Magic. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
