Adaptations Book Club: White Bird in a Blizzard

Adaptations Book Club is our monthly book club that meets to answer the age old question: Is the book truly better?

For November we are reading an under-read book along with an under-seen adaptation. Originally published in 1999, Laura Kasischke’s White Bird in a Blizzard follows a 16 year old girl adjusting to her mother’s sudden disappearance. In her daily life she’s able to still be a regular teen girl but in her dreams, she is haunted by her mother’s absence.

Adapted by New Queer Cinema legend Gregg Araki in 2014, this book is full of the teen angst you know you feel in the winter!

P.S. it’s Araki so you know there’s a killer soundtrack <3
