Aftermath (1)
Monthly book club hosted by TUFF
17 June 2026, 7–9PM
House of Annetta, ground floor left hand room
£3 suggested donation (contribution to the running of the house)
Every session will be held on the anniversary of a disaster or breakdown. Aftermath (1) marks 50 years after the June 1975 Standpipe Drought - via Bodies of Water by Astrida Neimanis, we will use this event as a starting point to think through infrastructure, ecology, economics and the politics of water.
*Aftermath is a monthly book club held at House of Annetta exploring what happens after catastrophes - of industry, colony, extraction, eruption, storms and economic breakdowns. Through books, essays and shared discussion, the group will trace what lingers, shifts or emerges in the shadow of disaster. Readings will move across fiction, theory, history and spatial practice, opening conversations around ecology, labour, landscape, infrastructure and repair. The bibliography will evolve through conversation and invited guests, and will work towards producing a collective publication, book or exhibition that sits outside of institutional frameworks.
Join us to read, listen and/or discuss!
