Book Club Run of The Great Believers

Join Read & Run Chicago for a three-mile running route inspired by Rebecca Makkai's award-winning novel The Great Believers. Lace up your running shoes (or hop on that bike) and get ready to explore the streets of Lakeview with guide Quinn Sluzenski. After the run, you’ll also hear directly from the LGBTQ elders and activists that would have been the contemporaries of the novel’s characters. This unique experience combines movement and literature, diving into the devastating and gripping world of The Great Believers and the real-life Chicago history behind it.
