Title of Event: Lauren Rosewarne Signs Cheating On the Sisterhood-- Infidelity and Feminism
When: Friday, July 3, 2009 6:30 PM
Location: UrbanThink! Bookstore
Description: Join us for a very special visit from Dr, Lauren Rosewarne! Cheating on the Sisterhood is a feminist analysis of the imbroglio of sexual politics, brute sociobiology, and pop-mediated passion that is conjured up when a married man cheats on his wife with a younger single woman. Drawing frankly on her own case study as the other woman, Rosewarne shows what happens when all three parties to the classic triangle happen to be feminists, each trotting out a different set of feminist arguments to justify, vilify, and rationalize their actions. She scrutinizes the alternate readings of the politics of cheating in terms of feminism's program of gender equality. Is the other woman a tool of the cheating man's assertion of gender dominance over both his mate and his mistress, such that she is willy-nilly a traitor to the sisterhood?

By Night in Chile
by Bolano, Roberto, Andrews, Christopher
The deathbed confession, told in one paragraph, of a Chilean priest, aspiring poet and established literary critic who didn’t have such a tough time under the repressive government of Pinochet. There’s something about this short novel I can’t put my finger on… it’s charming and frightening—oh, and part of it involves pigeon removal by means of falconry.
