Bogreception: The Bruises We Can’t See

Torsdag den 23. oktober kl. 17.00–19.00 inviterer Ballerup Bibliotek til fejring af udgivelsen af The Bruises We Can’t See – en stærk og rørende memoir af den lokale forfatter Luna Thomsen.

Aftenen byder på:
- Oplæsning af udvalgte passager fra bogen – ord, der er lige så rå, som de er genkendelige.
- Indblik i skriveprocessen, inspirationen bag bogen og det, der ikke kom med.
- Indlæg fra nogle af de mennesker, der optræder i memoiren, som deler deres egne perspektiver.
- Let forplejning samt mulighed for at møde forfatteren og få signeret sin bog.

The Bruises We Can’t See handler om de usynlige mærker, livet giver os – traumer, overlevelse og styrken til at bryde mønstre. 

Denne aften er ikke kun en boglancering, men også et fællesskab for dem, der værdsætter åbenhed, modstandskraft og forbindelse.

Bøger kan købes og signeres ved arrangementet.

Torsdag den 23. oktober kl. 17:00–19:00, Ballerup Bibliotek. Gratis.
