Donna Minkowitz’s DONNAVILLE Launch! In Conversation with David Groff (in person & live-streaming)

October 17 @ 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM

Come celebrate the launch of Donna Minkowitz’s hell-bent, boundary-busting novel DONNAVILLE, in which different parts of the author attack each other, fuck each other, and try to save each other from a terrifying jail inside.

Can they burn the prison down? Will anyone succeed at having sex with the Divine Mother?

A multi-gender, multi-sexuality, queer as f  internal quest.

To reserve a copy of DONNAVILLE please write to us at contact@bgsqd.com with “please reserve Donnaville for Oct. 17” in the subject line.

This event will take place in person at the Bureau of General Services—Queer Division, room 210 of The LGBT Community Center, 208 W. 13th St., NYC, 10011.
