Reading Salon: On Yearning - Washington, D.C.

**SOLD OUT**

Join Lit Society for an intimate afternoon of reading, reflection, cocktails and conversation centered around the theme of yearning.

Before the salon, you’ll answer a quiz to find out what your yearning says about you and receive a curated selection of books aligned with your perspective on yearning, longing, desire, and emotional restlessness. You choose one to dive into at the salon. At check out, you can even choose to add-on the purchase of your book to have it waiting for you at the salon! 

Together, we’ll gather at Jane Jane for quiet communal reading before moving into small group discussions shaped by the perspectives and books guests selected.

Think of it as part reading hour, part literary salon, part collective reflection on what it means to want something more.

Books provided by our friends at Solid State Books.
