Dua Lipa‘s April pick for her Service95 book club is ‘Jerusalem‘ by Jez Butterworth. Dua first read this play at 15 while studying for her English GCSEs. She said: “What I love most about Jerusalem, and why I’ve chosen it as our first play, is how alive it is on the page as well as the stage. One moment you’re deep in English folklore: giants, fairies, ancient drums. The next, someone is arguing about Girls Aloud. It is funny, it is tragic and it is the best possible reminder that reading plays is not only for school.”
Dua Lipa has been announced as this year’s London Literature Festival curator. The festival will take place at the Southbank Centre from 21 October to 1 November.

If you’re wondering how it’s possible to be a feminist to your core at the same time as loving lyrically problematic songs, reality TV and the occasional questionable romcom, congratulations, you are exactly the kind of “bad feminist” Roxane Gay is talking about.”

Offered, our protagonist, is now a Handmaid: stripped of the rights to her own body, she is ceremonially raped by her Commander and ordered to surrender any child conceived to their families, just like all Handmaids. Atwood said she didn’t make any of this up, as the basis for the novel was taken from horrifically episodes throughout history. Stay tuned for Dua’s interview with Atwood, coming November 4th.
