Reading Seminar - Carmilla by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu (Session 1of 2)

Join seminar guide Heaven-Leigh for a two-session deep dive into Carmilla by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu - one of the earliest works of vampire literature! A seductive, gothic classic that’s quick, eerie, and full of bite.

📖How it works:
Our Reading Seminars are group-based discussions that explore a text in depth - a slightly different vibe from our monthly book clubs. Guided by a facilitator (and sometimes paired with extra readings!), seminars meet for multiple sessions and let us connect the story to the world around us through history, pop culture, and critical theory.

🗓️ Dates
Wed Nov 12 and Nov 19 @ 6:30pm at Parallel Worlds bookshop
