Rubyfruit Jungle
by Rita Mae Brown

A groundbreaking lesbian coming-of-age novel. Molly Bolt refuses to fit anyone’s rules as she chases desire, identity, and freedom with fearless wit. A queer classic that still feels revolutionary.

Oscar Wilde's reputation as a modern and original talent was established by his fiction, then confirmed by the phenomenal success of his stage comedies, all huge hits in London's West End. buff.ly/g3tgqqH

A projected Zoom presentation slide titled "Liminal Space Theory." The slide explores the concept of liminal spaces, with an example labeled "The Airport Pub." Theoretical references include Van Gennep (1960), Turner (1996), and Foucault’s concept of Heterotopia (1966–1967). A quote from Turner (1968) is highlighted: “Liminality is pure potency... social categories are played with, inverted, suspended, social borders are liquidated, crossed, blurred; identity symbols are stripped away and affixed anew.” On the right side of the slide is a photo of a Wetherspoon bar and restaurant named The Windmill. In the lower right corner is a Zoom video feed of the presenter, Elizabeth Tsang, who is speaking from a well-lit room with plants visible behind her. The University of Potsdam logo is in the top right corner. The Zoom interface is visible along the top of the screen.
