Where can I find you in the cafe?

We sit at the back on one of the large tables close to the bathroom!

What if I haven't finish the book?

No problem at all. As long as you don't mind potential spoilers, you're more than welcome to join us.

Do I have to buy something in the cafe?

No, you are not obliged to make a purchase in the cafe.

What if I read the book a long time ago?

No problem! If you want to come to take part in the discussion and jog your memory of the book, you are more than welcome!

What if I didn't like the book?

That's ok! There's no pressure or expectation for everyone to enjoy the book. No one is going to be offended. In fact, we have some of the most interesting discussions about books we didn't like!

How noisy is the venue?

The cafe is generally quite quiet, especially at that time of day. We are rarely disturbed and can hear each other well without lots of background noise.

Overview

This month we will be discussing 'Discussing What I'd Rather Not Think About' by Jente Posthuma. Links to get the book below!

What if one half of a pair of twins no longer wants to live? What if the other can’t live without them?

This question lies at the heart of Jente Posthuma’s deceptively simple What I’d Rather Not Think About. The narrator is a twin whose brother has recently taken his own life. She looks back on their childhood, and tells of their adult lives: how her brother tried to find happiness, but lost himself in various men and the Bhagwan movement, though never completely.

In brief, precise vignettes, full of gentle melancholy and surprising humour, Posthuma tells the story of a depressive brother, viewed from the perspective of the sister who both loves and resents her twin, struggles to understand him, and misses him terribly.
