Join the book launch of Meg Elison’s new science-fiction novel The Book of the Unnamed Wife at The Booksmith on Tuesday, November 15th at 7:00 pm in San Francisco, California.
The book is about a midwife who must pick her way through the bones of the world she once knew to find a safe place after a pandemic obliterate earth’s population, killing women and children.
Only a few women have survived and the men are starting to take control of them. To preserve her freedom, she dons men’s clothing, goes by false names and avoids as many people as possible.
On her journey, she discovers a role bigger than becoming free – to help surviving women avoid fatality at childbirth, distributing medicine, and more.
This event is free, no door fee required.
