Heart the Lover

According to the author, "Empathy, human connection and love are what will save us," and this novel is ripe with all three. The editor says it is a "Love Story (by Eric Segal) for today." Readers are calling this her most powerful novel yet, which is saying A LOT. A bad date with a smart guy from her 17th Century Lit class alters the course of the narrator's life. Recalling Writers and Lovers a bit, this explores growing up and growing older and falling in and out of love with wisdom and a papercut-sharp understanding of relationships.


Being published in the UK by Canongate simultaneously and they will be pulling out all the publicity stops there as well as here so we are expecting a ton of coverage.
