SUMMARY:Virtual Author Talk: Megan Collins (The Family Plot)
DESCRIPTION:Bank Square Books and Savoy Bookshop & Café present an author talk and Q&A with Megan Collins for the release of the new book The Family Plot. Megan will be in conversation with Megan Miranda. \nThis event is free\, but registration is required. \nCopies of The Family Plot purchased through the event will come with a signed bookplate while supplies last. \nAbout the Book\nWhen a family obsessed with true crime gathers to bury their patriarch\, horrifying secrets are exposed upon the discovery of another body in his grave in this chilling novel from the author of Behind the Red Door and The Winter Sister. \nAt twenty-six\, Dahlia Lighthouse remains haunted by her upbringing. Raised in a secluded island mansion deep in the woods and kept isolated by her true crime-obsessed parents\, she has been unable to move beyond the disappearance of her twin brother\, Andy\, when they were sixteen. \nAfter several years away and following her father’s death\, Dahlia returns to the house where the family soon makes a gruesome discovery: buried in their father’s plot is another body—Andy’s\, his skull split open with an ax. \nDahlia is quick to blame Andy’s murder on the serial killer who terrorized the island for decades\, while the rest of the Lighthouses react to the revelation in unsettling ways. Her brother\, Charlie\, pours his energy into creating a family memorial museum\, highlighting their research into the lives of famous murder victims; her sister\, Tate\, forges ahead with her popular dioramas portraying crime scenes; and their mother affects a cheerfully domestic facade\, becoming unrecognizable as the woman who performed murder reenactments for her children.

SUMMARY:Virtual Author Talk: Emily Adrian (The Second Season)
DESCRIPTION:Bank Square Books and Savoy Bookshop & Café present an author talk and Q&A with Emily Adrian for the new book The Second Season. Emily will be in conversation with Rufi Thorpe (The Knockout Queen). \nThis event is free\, but registration is required. \nAbout the Book\nRuth Devon starred for Georgetown Basketball back in college — until she injured her knee\, married her coach\, and found a new career calling games on the radio. Twenty years later\, Ruth and her now-ex-husband\, Lester\, are two of the most famous faces in sports media. When Lester decides to retire from the announcers’ booth\, Ruth goes after his job. If she gets it\, she will be the first woman to call NBA games on national television. \nFor now\, Ruth is reporting from the sideline of the NBA finals\, immersed in the high-pressure spectacle of the post-season. But in a deserted locker room at halftime\, Ruth makes a discovery that shatters her vision of her future.

SUMMARY:Virtual Author Talk: Read of the Day with Steven Rowley (The Guncle)
DESCRIPTION:Bank Square Books and The Day present a Read of the Day event with Steven Rowley for the new book\, The Guncle.\nThis event is free\, but registration is required. \nAbout the Book\nFrom the bestselling author of Lily and the Octopus and The Editor comes a warm and deeply funny novel about a once-famous gay sitcom star whose unexpected family tragedy leaves him with his niece and nephew for the summer. \nPatrick\, or Gay Uncle Patrick (GUP\, for short)\, has always loved his niece\, Maisie\, and nephew\, Grant. That is\, he loves spending time with them when they come out to Palm Springs for weeklong visits\, or when he heads home to Connecticut for the holidays. But in terms of caretaking and relating to two children\, no matter how adorable\, Patrick is\, honestly\, overwhelmed. \nSo when tragedy strikes and Maisie and Grant lose their mother and Patrick’s brother has a health crisis of his own\, Patrick finds himself suddenly taking on the role of primary guardian. Despite having a set of “Guncle Rules” ready to go\, Patrick has no idea what to expect\, having spent years barely holding on after the loss of his great love\, a somewhat-stalled acting career\, and a lifestyle not-so-suited to a six- and a nine-year-old. Quickly realizing that parenting–even if temporary–isn’t solved with treats and jokes\, Patrick’s eyes are opened to a new sense of responsibility\, and the realization that\, sometimes\, even being larger than life means you’re unfailingly human. \nWith the humor and heart we’ve come to expect from bestselling author Steven Rowley\, The Guncle is a moving tribute to the power of love\, patience\, and family in even the most trying of times. \nAbout the Author\nSteven Rowley is the author of The Editor and the national bestseller Lily and the Octopus\, which has been translated into nineteen languages. He has worked as a freelance writer\, newspaper columnist\, and screenwriter. Originally from Portland\, Maine\, Rowley is a graduate of Emerson College. He lives in Palm Springs\, California.

His short daily runs are on mere delivery errands\, but he aspires to one day be among the elite foot couriers who run up to fifty miles on vital missions of state. When an impending invasion from faraway Persia\, the world’s most powerful empire–led by a temperamental tyrant bent on destroying democracy–threatens Athens and the entire land of squabbling Greek city-states\, Pheidippides must undertake a grueling solitary trek to outrun enemy ships heading for his beloved city.

SUMMARY:Virtual Author Talk: Chevy Stevens (Dark Roads)

Chevy will be in conversation with fellow thriller writer Jennifer Hillier. \nThis event is free\, but registration is required. Registration details are at the bottom of this page. \nAbout the Book\n“Chevy Stevens is a brilliant and unique talent and Dark Roads is an instant classic. My hat’s off to her.” ― C. J. Box\, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Long Range \nThe Cold Creek Highway stretches close to five hundred miles through British Columbia’s rugged wilderness to the west coast. Isolated and vast\, it has become a prime hunting ground for predators. For decades\, young women traveling the road have gone missing. Motorists and hitchhikers\, those passing through or living in one of the small towns scattered along the region\, have fallen prey time and again. And no killer or abductor who has stalked the highway has ever been brought to justice. \nHailey McBride calls Cold Creek home. Her father taught her to respect nature\, how to live and survive off the land\, and to never travel the highway alone. Now he’s gone\, leaving her a teenage orphan in the care of her aunt whose police officer husband uses his badge as a means to bully and control Hailey. Overwhelmed by grief and forbidden to work\, socialize\, or date\, Hailey vanishes into the mountainous terrain\, hoping everyone will believe she’s left town. Rumors spread that she was taken by the highway killer―who’s claimed another victim over the summer. \nOne year later\, Beth Chevalier arrives in Cold Creek\, where her sister Amber lived―and where she was murdered. Estranged from her parents and seeking closure\, Beth takes a waitressing job at the local diner\, just as Amber did\, desperate to understand what happened to her and why. But Beth’s search for answers puts a target on her back―and threatens to reveal the truth behind Hailey’s disappearance… \nAbout Chevy Stevens\nCHEVY STEVENS lives on Vancouver Island with her husband and daughter. When she isn’t working on her next book\, she’s hiking with her two dogs on her favorite mountain trails and spending time with her family. Chevy’s current obsessions are vintage Airstreams\, Hollywood memoirs\, all things mid-century modern\, and stand-up comedians–not necessarily in that order. Her books\, including Still Missing\, a New York Times bestseller and winner of the International Thriller Writers Award for Best First Novel\, have been published in more than thirty countries. \nAbout Jennifer Hillier\nJENNIFER HILLIER was born and raised in Toronto\, Canada\, lived in the Seattle area for years\, and has just moved back to Toronto with her husband and son. Jennifer is the author of Wonderland\, Creep\, and Jar of Hearts.

SUMMARY:Read of The Day Virtual Book Talk with Amanda M. Fairbanks (The Lost Boys of Montauk)
DESCRIPTION:Bank Square Books and The Day present a Read of the Day event with Amanda M. Fairbanks for the new book\, The Lost Boys of Montauk. \nThis event is free\, but registration is required. Registration details are at the bottom of this page. \nAbout the Book\nAn immersive account of a tragedy at sea whose repercussions haunt its survivors to this day\, lauded by New York Times bestselling author Ron Suskind as “an honest and touching book\, and a hell of a story.” \nIn March of 1984\, the commercial fishing boat Wind Blown left Montauk Harbor on what should have been a routine offshore voyage. Its captain\, a married father of three young boys\, was the boat’s owner and leader of the four-man crew\, which included two locals and the blue-blooded son of a well-to-do summer family. After a week at sea\, the weather suddenly turned\, and the foursome collided with a nor’easter. They soon found themselves in the fight of their lives. Tragically\, it was a fight they lost. Neither the boat nor the bodies of the men were ever recovered. \nThe fate of the Wind Blown—the second-worst nautical disaster suffered by a Montauk-based fishing vessel in over a hundred years—has become interwoven with the local folklore of the East End’s year-round population. Back then\, on the easternmost tip of Long Island\, before Wall Street and hedge fund money stormed into town\, commercial fishing was the area’s economic lifeblood. \nAmanda M.

SUMMARY:VIRTUAL: Read of The Day with Amanda M. Fairbanks (The Lost Boys of Montauk)
DESCRIPTION:Bank Square Books and The Day present a Read of the Day event with Amanda M. Fairbanks for the new book\, The Lost Boys of Montauk. \nThis event is free\, but registration is required. Registration details are at the bottom of this page. \nAbout the Book\nAn immersive account of a tragedy at sea whose repercussions haunt its survivors to this day\, lauded by New York Times bestselling author Ron Suskind as “an honest and touching book\, and a hell of a story.” \nIn March of 1984\, the commercial fishing boat Wind Blown left Montauk Harbor on what should have been a routine offshore voyage. Its captain\, a married father of three young boys\, was the boat’s owner and leader of the four-man crew\, which included two locals and the blue-blooded son of a well-to-do summer family. After a week at sea\, the weather suddenly turned\, and the foursome collided with a nor’easter. They soon found themselves in the fight of their lives. Tragically\, it was a fight they lost. Neither the boat nor the bodies of the men were ever recovered. \nThe fate of the Wind Blown—the second-worst nautical disaster suffered by a Montauk-based fishing vessel in over a hundred years—has become interwoven with the local folklore of the East End’s year-round population. Back then\, on the easternmost tip of Long Island\, before Wall Street and hedge fund money stormed into town\, commercial fishing was the area’s economic lifeblood. \nAmanda M. Fairbanks examines the profound shift of Montauk from a working-class village—“a drinking town with a fishing problem”—to a playground for the ultra-wealthy\, seeking out the reasons that an event more than three decades old remains so startlingly vivid in people’s minds. She explores the ways in which deep\, lasting grief can alter people’s memories. And she shines a light on the powerful and sometimes painful dynamics between fathers and sons\, as well as the secrets that can haunt families from beyond the grave. \nThe story itself is a universal tale of family and brotherhood; it’s about what happens when the dreams and ambitions of affluent and working-class families collide.

But this morning is different: last night Elle and her oldest friend Jonas crept out the back door into the darkness and had sex with each other for the first time\, all while their spouses chatted away inside.

Registration details are at the bottom of this page. \nAbout the Book\nAn emotional and unforgettable tale of a small town irrevocably affected by an unforeseen and shocking event—from the author of the “charming gem of a novel” (Elin Hilderbrand\, #1 New York Times bestselling author) Mystic Summer. \nWendell Combs is as local as they come. Born and raised in the small town of Saybrook\, Connecticut\, his venture into the larger world was met with heartbreak. Now\, middle-aged and a confirmed bachelor\, he seeks solitude from his tour of duty as a soldier back in his hometown\, working as head caretaker for wealthy Alan Lancaster’s forty-acre estate\, White Pines\, a place he has come to love for its beauty\, peace\, and quiet. \nAlan’s eldest daughter\, fifteen-year-old Julia\, also loves White Pines\, but for very different reasons. She and her little sister spend their days riding horses\, swimming in the lake\, and painting landscapes inspired by the property they adore. While her parents prepare to host their annual summer gala fundraiser\, Julia’s eyes are set to the simpler joys of summer: she’s fallen in love with the boy-next-door and longs for their next encounter. \nBut as the last guests leave on that magical summer night\, a tragedy no one could have predicted suddenly occurs\, shaking the entire town to its core. Wendell and Julia now face an uncertain future. At the height of their grief\, two very different women return to Saybrook: Ginny Feldman\, Wendell’s first love\, who cannot stay away any longer\, and Candace Lancaster\, Julia’s estranged aunt who wants nothing to do with the town or the family estate she escaped decades earlier. Now\, the only familiar things Julia has to cling to are Wendell and White Pines\, but it looks like she’s about to lose both… \nWith Hannah McKinnon’s “sharp and evocative” (Kirkus Reviews) prose\, this stirring and affecting tale explores the connection between people and place and what\, ultimately\, makes up the fabric of a family. \nAbout Hannah McKinnon\nHannah Roberts McKinnon is the award winning author of six women’s fiction and beach read novels with Simon and Schuster.

SUMMARY:VIRTUAL: Gary Grossman & Ed Fuller (Red Deception) Author Talk and Q&A
DESCRIPTION:Bank Square Books and Savoy Bookshop & Café present an author talk and Q&A with Gary Grossman and Ed Fuller for their new book Red Deception. \nThis event is free\, but registration is required. Registration details are at the bottom of this page. \nAbout the Book\nIntelligence experts and thriller authors concur: Red Deception is “A page-turner by authors who might as well sit on the National Security Council.” When terrorists bomb bridges across the country and threaten the Hoover Dam\, the vulnerability of America’s infrastructure becomes a matter of national security. But Dan Reilly\, a former Army intelligence officer\, predicted the attacks in a secret State Department report written years earlier—a virtual blueprint for disaster\, somehow leaked and now in the hands of foreign operatives. With Washington distracted by domestic crises\, Russian President Nicolai Gorshkov sends troops to the borders of Ukraine and Latvia\, ready to reclaim what he feels is Russia’s rightful territory. Tensions in Europe threaten to boil over as a besieged American president balances multiple crises that threaten to upend the geopolitical order. With the US at the mercy of an egomaniacal leader\, and reporters and covert agents on his tail\, Reilly may be the one man who can connect the dots before an even bigger catastrophe unfolds. Red Deception is the second book in the Red Hotel series. \nAbout the Authors\nGary Grossman’s first novel\, Executive Actions\, propelled him into the world of geopolitical thrillers. Executive Treason\, Executive Command\, and Executive Force further tapped Grossman’s experience as a journalist\, newspaper columnist\, documentary television producer\, reporter\, and media historian. In addition to the bestselling Executive series\, Grossman wrote the international award-winning Old Earth\, a geological thriller that spans all of time. With Red Hotel and Red Deception\, his collaborations with Ed Fuller\, Grossman entered a new realm of globe-hopping thriller writing. Ed Fuller is a hospitality industry leader\, educator\, and bestselling author. He is president of Irvine\, California-based Laguna Strategic Advisors\, a global consortium that provides business consulting services to corporations and governments. Fuller is also director of the FBI National Academy Associates (FBINAA). The plots for Red Hotel and Red Deception draw heavily on his experience and exploits. \nRegister

SUMMARY:VIRTUAL: Glenn A. Knoblock (New England Shipbuilding) Author Talk and Q&A
DESCRIPTION:Bank Square Books and Savoy Bookshop & Café present an author talk and Q&A with Glenn A. Knoblock for the new book New England Shipbuilding. \nThis event is free\, but registration is required. Registration details are at the bottom of this page. \nAbout the Book\nFor more than four hundred years\, New England shipyards have contributed significantly to America’s maritime and naval supremacy. This compelling story is presented through the histories of seventy ships built from the colonial era down to modern times. Well-known vessels like the Constitution\, the Nautilus\, the Flying Cloud and the infamous whaleship Essex are included\, but so\, too\, are lesser-known ships\, including the ill-fated Wyoming and the far-ranging voyager Union. Every type of vessel is covered–their building or voyages making nautical news\, often in exciting fashion\, and their exploits filled with adventure\, danger\, tragedy and survival. Historian and author Glenn A. Knoblock explores the construction\, life and demise of these ships and details their contribution to our nation’s maritime heritage. \nAbout Glenn Knoblock\nGlenn Knoblock (1962-) is a native of Ohio with New England roots. After graduating with a BA in History from Bowling Green State University (Ohio)\, he moved to New Hampshire in 1984 and has been there ever since. In his numerous works he has explored unusual aspects of New Hampshire history. He has also specialized in African American military history\, both at the state and national level. His work “Strong and Brave Soldiers: New Hampshire’s Black Soldiers and Sailors of the American Revolution” has been called by one reviewer “a powerful\, uplifting\, and shameful story\, a profound tale”. Nationally\, Glenn is an expert on African Americans who served in the U.S. Navy during World War II\, as documented in his book “Black Submariners of the U.S. Navy”\, and has documented all known African American Naval\, Coast Guard\, and Merchant Marine casualties and award winners from WW II in yet another work. What drives Glenn in his choice of research and book topics? “Its all about recovering our lost history\, and documenting the achievements and contributions of notable individuals whose stories would otherwise be lost”. In continuing this mission\, Glenn has been a primary contributor\, in both print and online editions\, to the African American National Biography Project\, a collaborative work between Harvard and Oxford University Press. To date\, he has authored the biographies of over 100 significant African American military servicemen that have served from the Revolutionary War through the Vietnam War. \nGlenn and his wife Terry\, and their daughter Anna\, live in Wolfeboro Falls\, NH. \nRegister

Or have the Digbys defected to Moscow with a trove of the West’s most vital secrets? \nFour years later\, Ruth Macallister receives a postcard from the twin sister she hasn’t seen since their catastrophic parting in Rome in the summer of 1940\, as war engulfed the continent and Iris fell desperately in love with an enigmatic United States Embassy official named Sasha Digby. Within days\, Ruth is on her way to Moscow\, posing as the wife of counterintelligence agent Sumner Fox in a precarious plot to extract the Digbys from behind the Iron Curtain. \nBut the complex truth behind Iris’s marriage defies Ruth’s understanding\, and as the sisters race toward safety\, a dogged Soviet KGB officer forces them to make a heartbreaking choice between two irreconcilable loyalties. \nAbout the Author \nBeatriz Williams is the bestselling author of thirteen novels\, including Her Last Flight\, The Summer Wives\, and The Golden Hour\, as well as All the Ways We Said Goodbye\, cowritten with Lauren Willig and Karen White.

SUMMARY:Virtual Event: Read of The Day with Bonnie Tsui (Why We Swim)
DESCRIPTION:Bank Square Books and The Day present an Read of the Day event with Bonnie Tsui for the release of the new book\, Why We Swim. \nThis event is free\, but registration is required. Registration details are at the bottom of this page. \nAbout the Book\nA Time Magazine Must-Read Book of 2020\nA Best Book of the Season: BuzzFeed * Bustle * San Francisco Chronicle\nA Best Book of the Year: NPR’s Book Concierge * Washington Independent Review of Books \n“A fascinating and beautifully written love letter to water. I was enchanted by this book.” —Rebecca Skloot\, bestselling author of The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks \nAn immersive\, unforgettable\, and eye-opening perspective on swimming—and on human behavior itself. \nWe swim in freezing Arctic waters and piranha-infested rivers to test our limits. We swim for pleasure\, for exercise\, for healing. But humans\, unlike other animals that are drawn to water\, are not natural-born swimmers. We must be taught. Our evolutionary ancestors learned for survival; now\, in the twenty-first century\, swimming is one of the most popular activities in the world. \nWhy We Swim is propelled by stories of Olympic champions\, a Baghdad swim club that meets in Saddam Hussein’s palace pool\, modern-day Japanese samurai swimmers\, and even an Icelandic fisherman who improbably survives a wintry six-hour swim after a shipwreck. New York Times contributor Bonnie Tsui\, a swimmer herself\, dives into the deep\, from the San Francisco Bay to the South China Sea\, investigating what it is about water that seduces us\, despite its dangers\, and why we come back to it again and again. \nAbout Bonnie Tsui\nBonnie Tsui lives\, swims\, and surfs in the Bay Area. A longtime contributor to the New York Times and California Sunday Magazine\, she has been the recipient of the Jane Rainie Opel Young Alumna Award from Harvard University\, the Lowell Thomas Gold Award\, and a National Press Foundation Fellowship. Her last book\, American Chinatown: A People’s History of Five Neighborhoods\, won the Asian/Pacific American Award for Literature and was a San Francisco Chronicle bestseller and Best of 2009 Notable Bay Area Books selection.

DESCRIPTION:Bank Square Books and Savoy Bookshop & Café present an author talk and Q&A with bestselling author Chris Bohjalian for the release of his new novel\, Hour of the Witch. Chris will be in conversation with fellow bestselling author\, Wally Lamb. \nThis event is free\, but registration is required. Registration details are at the bottom of this page. \nAbout the Book\nA young Puritan woman–faithful\, resourceful\, but afraid of the demons that dog her soul–plots her escape from a violent marriage in this riveting and propulsive novel of historical suspense from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Flight Attendant. \nBoston\, 1662. Mary Deerfield is twenty-four-years-old. Her skin is porcelain\, her eyes delft blue\, and in England she might have had many suitors. But here in the New World\, amid this community of saints\, Mary is the second wife of Thomas Deerfield\, a man as cruel as he is powerful. When Thomas\, prone to drunken rage\, drives a three-tined fork into the back of Mary’s hand\, she resolves that she must divorce him to save her life. But in a world where every neighbor is watching for signs of the devil\, a woman like Mary–a woman who harbors secret desires and finds it difficult to tolerate the brazen hypocrisy of so many men in the colony–soon becomes herself the object of suspicion and rumor. When tainted objects are discovered buried in Mary’s garden\, when a boy she has treated with herbs and simples dies\, and when their servant girl runs screaming in fright from her home\, Mary must fight to not only escape her marriage\, but also the gallows. A twisting\, tightly plotted novel of historical suspense from one of our greatest storytellers\, Hour of the Witch is a timely and terrifying story of socially sanctioned brutality and the original American witch hunt. \nAbout Chris Bohjalian\nChris Bohjalian is the #1 New York Times best-selling author of twenty-two books\, including The Red Lotus\, Midwives\, and The Flight Attendant\, which is an HBO Max limited series starring Kaley Cuoco.

SUMMARY:Virtual Event: Deborah Goodrich Royce (Ruby Falls) Author Talk and Q&A with Kimberly Belle
DESCRIPTION:Bank Square Books and Savoy Bookshop & Café present an author talk and Q&A with Deborah Goodrich Royce for the release of the new book\, Ruby Falls. Deborah will be in conversation with author Kimberly Belle. \nThis event is free\, but registration is required. Registration details are at the bottom of this page. \nAbout the Book\nNamed on of the most riveting books of Spring 2021 by Veranda Magazine! \nLike the chilling psychological thriller The Silent Patient\, Deborah Goodrich Royce’s Ruby Falls is a nail-biting tale of a fragile young actress\, the new husband she barely knows\, and her growing suspicion that the secrets he harbors may eclipse her own. \nOn a brilliantly sunny July day\, six-year-old Ruby is abandoned by her father in the suffocating dark of a Tennessee cave. Twenty years later\, transformed into soap opera star Eleanor Russell\, she is fired under dubious circumstances. Fleeing to Europe\, she marries a glamorous stranger named Orlando Montague and keeps her past closely hidden. \nTogether\, Eleanor and Orlando start afresh in LA. Setting up house in a storybook cottage in the Hollywood Hills\, Eleanor is cast in a dream role—the lead in a remake of Rebecca. As she immerses herself in that eerie gothic tale\, Orlando’s personality changes\, ghosts of her past re-emerge\, and Eleanor fears she is not the only person in her marriage with a secret. \nIn this thrilling and twisty homage to Daphne du Maurier’s Rebecca\, the story ricochets through the streets of Los Angeles\, a dangerous marriage to an exotic stranger\, and the mind of a young woman whose past may not release her. \nAbout Deborah Goodrich Royce\nDeborah Goodrich Royce’s first novel\, Finding Mrs. Ford\, debuted in 2019 to rave reviews. She divides her time between the Northeast and Florida\, where she writes\, reads\, watches lots of movies\, and spends time with her family. \nDeborah serves on the governing and/or advisory boards of the Avon Theatre\, the American Film Institute\, New York Botanical Garden\, the Greenwich International Film Festival\, the Greenwich Historical Society\, the Preservation Foundation of Palm Beach\, the Preservation Society of Newport\, and the PRASAD Project. She and her husband have restored more buildings than she can count\, including the Ocean House Hotel and the Deer Mountain Inn. \nDeborah holds a BA in French and Italian from Lake Erie College and an honorary doctorate from the same institution. In an earlier life\, she was an actress in film and television and a story editor at Miramax Films. Ruby Falls is her second psychological thriller\, and she owes a debt of gratitude for its inspiration to Daphne du Maurier and Alfred Hitchcock. \nAbout Kimberly Belle\nKimberly Belle is the USA Today and internationally bestselling author of six novels\, including her forthcoming domestic suspense\, Stranger in the Lake (June 2020). Her third novel\, The Marriage Lie\, was a semifinalist in the 2017 Goodreads Choice Awards for Best Mystery & Thriller\, and a #1 e-book bestseller in the UK and Italy.

SUMMARY:Digital Program: Read of The Day author talk and Q&A with bestselling author Julia Alvarez
DESCRIPTION:Bank Square Books and The Day present a special Read of The Day author talk and Q&A with bestselling author Julia Alvarez for the paperback release of Afterlife. Alvarez will be interviewed by Arts Reporter at The Day\, Rick Koster. \nThis is a ticketed event. Tickets to the event will range from $5 (virtual event access only) to $20 (event access and book). Ticketing information can be found at the bottom of this page. \nAbout the Book\nThe first adult novel in almost fifteen years by the internationally bestselling author of In the Time of the Butterflies and How the García Girls Lost Their Accents \n“A stunning work of art that reminds readers Alvarez is\, and always has been\, in a class of her own.” —Elizabeth Acevedo\, National Book Award-winning author of the New York Times bestseller The Poet X \nAntonia Vega\, the immigrant writer at the center of Afterlife\, has had the rug pulled out from under her. She has just retired from the college where she taught English when her beloved husband\, Sam\, suddenly dies. And then more jolts: her bighearted but unstable sister disappears\, and Antonia returns home one evening to find a pregnant\, undocumented teenager on her doorstep. Antonia has always sought direction in the literature she loves—lines from her favorite authors play in her head like a soundtrack—but now she finds that the world demands more of her than words. \nAfterlife is a compact\, nimble\, and sharply droll novel. Set in this political moment of tribalism and distrust\, it asks: What do we owe those in crisis in our families\, including—maybe especially—members of our human family? How do we live in a broken world without losing faith in one another or ourselves? And how do we stay true to those glorious souls we have lost? \nAbout Julia Alvarez\nJulia Alvarez left the Dominican Republic for the United States in 1960 at the age of ten. She is the author of six novels\, three books of nonfiction\, three collections of poetry\, and eleven books for children and young adults. She has taught and mentored writers in schools and communities across America and\, until her retirement in 2016\, was a writer in residence at Middlebury College. Her work has garnered wide recognition\, including a Latina Leader Award in Literature from the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute\, the Hispanic Heritage Award in Literature\, the Woman of the Year by Latina magazine\, and inclusion in the New York Public Library’s program “The Hand of the Poet: Original Manuscripts by 100 Masters\, from John Donne to Julia Alvarez.” In the Time of the Butterflies\, with over one million copies in print\, was selected by the National Endowment for the Arts for its national Big Read program\, and in 2013 President Obama awarded Alvarez the National Medal of Arts in recognition of her extraordinary storytelling. \nTickets
