Call: Post-Office Book Club: Cyber and the City

Hey bookish babes and boos, the soirées of the Post-Office Book Club are back! This year, we’re serving up something special with our new theme: Cyber and the City. Get ready to explore the rich intersection of feminism, digital culture, and architecture. We’re spilling the lore on trailblazing female+* authors who are rewriting the rules of both digital and physical worlds.

Whether you’re a casual lit lover or a die-hard bibliophile, this club can be your after-hours happy hour. Each gathering comes with a special literary microdose—a quick hit of the book’s essence, so you’re prepped and ready for the deep dive.

Feeling bold? You can host your own night! Just shoot us an email at [manou.vandeneynde@kuleuven.be]
