We are finally launching this literary salon that got hijacked by the pandemic last year.

Thanks to all of who have signed up! For those who haven’t, it’s not too late! If you are interested please email me cheryl@sausalitobooksbythebay.com or sign up at the bookshop on your next visit.

The novel is a provocative, powerful read that resonates with many relevant issues today – class, race, the environment – and many timeless issues such as heartrending, young love. Set within a tight-knit North Carolina neighborhood, the book prompts questions that are both timely and riveting. It’s a fast, page-turning read; a compelling story that should make for a great book group discussion. Published in 2019, Newsweek called it “One of the most precise and timely novels of the year”. 

The author: Fowler is the New York Times best-selling author of “A Well Behaved Woman” and “Z: A Novel of Zelda Fitzgerald” which was adapted for TV.
