Celebrate Library Week with Sam Elkin and the VLA Law Library
Sam Elkin
Join VLA Library staff and Sam Elkin for an online in-conversation about his debut narrative non-fiction book Detachable Pen*s: A Queer Legal Saga. Through an examination of Elkin’s legal casework and law reform efforts, Detachable Pen*s: A Queer Legal Saga offers a kaleidoscopic view of LGBTIQA+ communities living on the margins. This politically sharp narrative offers a nuanced account of the lateral violence, poor mental health and activist burn out that besets the contemporary LGBTIQA+ rights movement. Part love letter and part cautionary tale, Detachable Pen*s: A Queer Legal Saga offers a darkly humorous glimpse into Elkin’s unique life in the law that will undoubtedly spark many prickly conversations. RSVP to [email protected] for the zoom link.
