February’s book club pick is S*** Cassandra Saw by Gwen E. Kirby. In Gwen’s words, the highlights of this collection include “feminism, violence and bathroom retiling.” It kind of has everything. We talk about the inspiration behind some of her stories from historical women to the political events of the last five years.
