Full description from organizerShow less
A conversation about books, progress, and why we still bother reading. When I started this book club in June, the mission was simple: read books worth reading, and see if others wanted to read them too. Those books have come from the Stripe Press catalogue — so far, Maintenance: Of Everything (upkeep is invisible until it's neglected), Get Together (communities are built and sustained, not just started), BOOM: Bubbles and the End of Stagnation (stagnation is motion that stopped compounding), and currently, Poor Charlie's Almanack. The NYC meetups have, by far, been the best part of the whole project — you simply cannot replace in-person connection. I'm now bringing that same energy to SF: a group conversation about progress, with people who like to think out loud together. Read the full story behind the tour on Sam's Book Club. What to expect: Small group Casual discussion of Poor Charlie's Almanack + progress/stagnation themes Coffee + good conversation Who should come: Anyone curious, whether or not you've finished the book. Come as you are. Keep the conversation going: This tour is five stops, but the book club doesn't stop when the tour ends — readers from around the world are already part of it. Subscribe to Sam's Book Club to keep reading and discussing beyond the meetup, wherever you are.
