Everyone is welcome!James by Percival EverettGoodreads Choice Award, A brilliant reimagining of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn—both harrowing and satirical—told from the enslaved Jim's point of viewWhen Jim overhears that he is about to be sold to a man in New Orleans, separated from his wife and daughter forever, he runs away until he can formulate a plan. Meanwhile, Huck has faked his own death to escape his violent father. As all readers of American literature know, thus begins the dangerous and transcendent journey by raft down the Mississippi River toward the elusive and unreliable promise of the Free States and beyond.Brimming with nuanced humor and lacerating observations that have made Everett a literary icon, this brilliant and tender novel radically illuminates Jim's agency, intelligence, and compassion as never before. James is destined to be a major publishing event and a cornerstone of twenty-first-century American literature. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/topeka/book-club-james-by-percival-everett/100001985556561124 - **Event Categories**: Art, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Topeka - **state**: KS - **country**: United States - **location**: Compass Point home of Dirty Girl Adventures - **lat**: 39.0661516 - **long**: -95.6669211 - **full address**: Compass Point home of Dirty Girl Adventures, 800 North Kansas Avenue, Topeka, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Book Club - James by Percival Everett - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/c9746ef1e3b3f777d003b833fbe87dd0401e56aaafba446dca94934ddb7fd490-rimg-w1200-h676-dc796858-gmir.jpg?v=1774083908 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Book Club - James by Percival Everett being held? - **A:** Book Club - James by Percival Everett takes place on Tue, 19 May, 2026 at 05:45 pm to Tue, 19 May, 2026 at 07:30 pm at Compass Point home of Dirty Girl Adventures, 800 North Kansas Avenue, Topeka, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Book Club - James by Percival Everett? - **A:** Book Club - James by Percival Everett is organized by Compass Point home of Dirty Girl Adventures. - **Q**: What has been the experience of attendees at Compass Point home of Dirty Girl Adventures's events? - **A:** Attendees have given Compass Point home of Dirty Girl Adventures a rating of 5/5 based on reviews from early attendees on AllEvents.
