June 6, 2017: The Refrigerator Monologues Signing

Author Catherynne M. Valente signs at Pandemonium Books & Games on Tuesday, June 6th at 7:00 PM.

Catherynne M. Valente’s new collection of connected novellas, The Refrigerator Monologues, with illustrations by Annie Wu, is releasing on June 6! Join the Hell Hath Club, a group of “fridged” (killed off to further the storylines of male superheroes) superheroines, supervillainesses, and superhero girlfriends. Six of them share their stories of their deaths, their lives, and their relationships with the male superheroes for whom they were killed.

You don’t have to be a comic book fan to enjoy this book, but comic book fans will pick up on fantastic Easter Eggs as well as connect the characters that Valente has created with their DC and Marvel counterparts.
