    Anticlockwise & LANGSA Student Roundtable: Tropification of Literature in the Age of BookTok*
    April 14, 2026 | 1:00–3:00 PM | Susan Herbst Hall 236

     

    Enemies-to-Lovers. The Chosen One. Dark Academia. Tropes have taken over how we talk about books, but is that a new way to love reading, or the algorithm winning over art?

     

    Join Anticlockwise and LANGSA for a low-stakes, high-energy roundtable. Bring your hot takes. No formal paper required. Presenters get 5–7 minutes, followed by open debate.

     

    Want to present? Please see the call for papers and submit a 150-word abstract to ashmita.mukherjee@uconn.edu and ghataksuvendu@gmail.com by March 31, 2026.

     

    *The event will be recorded and shared on Anticlockwise social media channels.
