Book Club #4 'The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks' Rebecca Skloot
Hi Reading Berliners 👋🏻
Let's meet for our next book club, where over dinner we'll discuss 'The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks' by Rebecca Skloot.
“The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks is a fascinating read and a ringing success. It is a well-written, carefully-researched, complex saga of medical research, bioethics, and race in America. Above all it is a human story of redemption for a family, torn by loss, and for a writer with a vision that would not let go.” — Douglas Whynott, The Boston Globe

If you want to attend, make sure to order the book in advance, as I've seen on multiple websites that it's not readily available and usually requires 1-2 weeks waiting time before it's shipped.
The dinner location will be shared a few days before the event - most likely we'll meet in Mitte or Kreuzkölln.
