Books on Tap - February
Join us for Books on Tap, a laid-back book club where great reads meet great brews at Normaltown Brewing Company! We’ll vote for the upcoming book, a different genre each month. $1 off pints for book club attendees.
THIS MONTH’S READ: Death of the Author by Nnedi Okorafor
Disabled, disinclined to marry, and more interested in writing than a lucrative career in medicine or law, Zelu has always felt like the outcast of her large Nigerian family. Then her life is upended when, in the middle of her sister’s lavish Caribbean wedding, she’s unceremoniously fired from her university job and, to add insult to injury, her novel is rejected by yet another publisher. With her career and dreams crushed in one fell swoop, she decides to write something just for herself. What comes out is nothing like the quiet, literary novels that have so far peppered her unremarkable career. It’s a far-future epic of stunning Afrofuturism where androids and AI wage war in the grown-over ruins of human civilization. She calls it Rusted Robots.
When Zelu finds the courage to share her strange novel, she does not realize she is about to embark on a life-altering journey—one that will catapult her into literary stardom, but also perhaps obliterate everything her book was meant to be. From Chicago to Lagos to the far reaches of space, Zelu’s novel will change the future not only for humanity, but for the robots who come next.
A book-within-a-book that blends the line between writing and being written, Death of the Author is a masterpiece of metafiction that manages to combine the razor-sharp commentary of Yellowface with the heartfelt humanity of Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow. Surprisingly funny, deeply poignant, and endlessly discussable, this is at once the tale of a woman on the margins risking everything to be heard and a testament to the power of storytelling to shape the world as we know it.
Discussion starts at 6:30. We’ll vote for the upcoming book, a different genre each month. Grab a pint, pull up a chair, and let’s talk books!

‘Pressure Drop’ Film Screening
Doors open at 6:00 pm
Film at 7:00 pm
The event will be a celebration of winter sports for Athens area adventure enthusiasts. Doors will open at 6PM, Show will start at 7PM. There will be various giveaways and beer specials from Normaltown Brewing Co. and local Outdoor Stores.
Pressure Drop is the latest chapter in a 30-year journey—forged from a dream, fueled with cash from commercial fishing in Alaska, and driven by an obsession with life on the edge. This film follows the world’s best skiers and snowboarders, alongside the next generation, through Alaskan spines, stacked pillow lines, massive cliffs, giant couloirs, deep powder, and insane jumps. From Norway to British Columbia, California to Alaska, and home in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, each line becomes a brushstroke in the art of descent.
Pressure Drop captures that fleeting space between calm and chaos—when breath slows, vision sharpens, and the mountain demands everything. It’s the moment before gravity takes over. For three decades, we’ve stood at the edge—where fear meets flow and everything else fades. Pressure Drop continues the tradition of what it means to dedicate your life to the fall line.
