# Event Details

- **Event Name**: October Book Club:Frankenstein in Baghdad by Ahmed Saadawi 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 29 Oct, 2025 at 07:00 pm – Wed, 29 Oct, 2025 at 09:00 pm
- **Event Description**: From the rubble-strewn streets of U.S.-occupied Baghdad, Hadi—a scavenger and an oddball fixture at a local café—collects human body parts and stitches them together to create a corpse. His goal, he claims, is for the government to recognize the parts as people and to give them proper burial. But when the corpse goes missing, a wave of eerie murders sweeps the city, and reports stream in of a horrendous-looking criminal who, though shot, cannot be killed. Hadi soon realizes he’s created a monster, one that needs human flesh to survive—first from the guilty, and then from anyone in its path.
