Meet Our Readers: Eden Robins

Eden Robins has been a co-host of Tuesday Funk for, holy shit, TEN YEARS (minus a pandemic)?! This will be her last show as co-host. Her bio on the site is very outdated, she has suddenly realized. Her upcoming novel Remember You Will Die will be out on October 22 and has so far been called "poignant and bonkers," not to mention "a joyously enlivening masterpiece." Her first novel When Franny Stands Up, is also pretty good. She was a 2023 Illinois Arts Council Fellow in Literature as well as a 2024 nominee for Crossing Guard of the Year (which she lost). Even after she departs the hallowed halls of Hopleaf's upstairs bar, you can still find her at monkeythumbs.com as well as on Instagram and occasionally elsewhere @edenrobins.

Please join Eden and our other amazing readers on Tuesday, June 4, 2024 in the upstairs bar at Hopleaf. Doors open at 7pm, and the show starts at 7:30. It's free, and 21-and-over. Please RSVP on Facebook.
