Barchives 27: Joan And John At Liz’s Book Bar

If you’re still compiling your summer reading list, Barchives, a METRO Interest Group, has got a book AND a book bar for you. Liz’s Book Bar has only been open a year, but is already a solid fixture in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn. If you haven’t visited yet, this first taste will leave you wanting more of their coffee, wine, well-curated book displays, and community events. One of the books calling your name might be Notes to John, crafted from the late Joan Didion’s journal entries about her therapy sessions. NYPL Archivists who processed the Joan Didion and John Gregory Dunne Papers will discuss the contents of this intimate collection of two renowned American writers.
