Bluestockings Now!
Bluestockings Now!: The Evolution of a Social Role | Professor Deborah Heller
1 post
Challenging the theory that the Bluestockings spanned only the period from the 1750s through the 1790s, this collection argues for a new vision of the Bluestockings as belonging to a chain of interconnected networks that can be traced from the early eighteenth century to the present. The contributors explore the activities of the Bluestockings in a variety of cultural and social realms, trace their influence through the nineteenth century, and propose that Bluestocking practice be reinvented in the present.

I checked out a new-to-me indie on #IndependentBookstoreDay, Bluestocking Social in Evansville, IN. I had been following them on social media for awhile and knew it was my kind of store because their last book club pick was Nightbitch!

It is a small store, just one room, but the selection was well curated and a good mix of hardcover and paperback. I was glad to get the free Kawakami short story, too!

Megabooks They had kids, MG, and YA sections in addition to adult fiction and NF. It was super busy and almost everyone was buying something, which was fantastic! 2y
