You Have How Many Roommates? A Writer’s Guide to Communal Living


Between a lower cost of living and a rich sense of community, communal living is paving the way for a return to human nature. But what is it really, and how can people find it? In this fabulous one-hour event, local author Bailey Merlin will speak about her experience finding communal living in Roxbury before reading from the heartwarming and hilarious novel it inspired, A Lot of People Live in This House.
