Boekenclub De Cavia's reading 'Women in dark times'

Do you love reading and would you like to talk about books with others? On Wednesday, June 3, 2026 at 7 PM, let's meet at De Kaai and discuss the book 'Women in Dark Times' by Alicja Gescinska. Alicja Gescinska takes the reader on a turbulent and philosophical journey through the last century. In ten biographical portraits, she shows what humanity can learn from women who are both courageous and intelligent: Rosa Luxemburg, Anna Achmatova, Edith Stein, Hannah Arendt, Martha Gellhorn, Simone Weil, Jeanne Hersch, Etty Hillesum, Barbara Skarga and Judith Shklar. With word and deed, they fought oppression, dehumanization, the destructive impulses of their time. They were beacons of light in the darkest hours of humanity. They often paid a high price for it: from death in camps to a life in exile. Would you like to participate? Then send your details by email to tsabatino@anderlecht.brussels!
