The novel Kismet tells a story about imperfect people in a world obsessed with perfect matches, surrounded by curated online profiles and endless Tinder swiping. Sound familiar?
Gooce Supper Club and publishers Faber & Faber partner up to celebrate the launch of the novel Kismet, for a one-off singles supper club uniting like minded food lovers who want to get back to meeting people offline.
Held at Southwark Brewing Co., guests come solo or with mates, and can bond over three delicious courses inspired by scenes from the novel. And for drinks? Along with a strong welcome cocktail, the Head Brewer has created a craft beer tasting flight, paired to each course, for all guests.
Kismet, debuting in May, tells the story of Anna, who like many millennials, at 29 is grappling with the central question of her life: is it time to settle for a secure and predictable existence, or should she risk everything for a life of passion and adventure? Her attempt to answer this centres on Kismet, a phone-based matchmaking app that works by compiling people’s online behaviour, that has now replaced traditional dating.
If only she’d gone to a Gooce Supper Club….
The evening includes:
Welcome cocktail with canapés
3 course sharing platter menu
3 glass beer flight tasting paired by Southwark Brewing co.
Exclusive Q&A with Kismet author Luke Tredget
