Tom Lake ~ About Ann Patchett
...with cherries on top!
Happy Labor Day! I hope this email finds everyone happy and healthy, and that you get to spend your holiday reading!
When I started doing some research about Ann Patchett, I didn’t realize how many of her books I’ve read. Her fiction books:
Bel Canto was the very first book we read as a group. In addition to being an award-winning, best-selling author of 9 novels, 5 non-fiction works, and 2 children’s books, Ann Patchett owns a bookstore. You can visit Parnassus Books in Nashville, Tennessee. When purchased from Parnassus, all of Ann’s books are signed and can be personalized!
I really didn’t know all that much about Ann other than the fact that she’s a great writer, so I looked for some interviews about her to get to know her better. I think you’ll enjoy the following interview where she discusses Tom Lake. I’m positive those of you that own dogs will love it. This is from a writer’s conference so you might want to skip the first 11 minutes.
Our online video meeting for this book will be this coming Friday, September 6th at 11 am, Morelia time.
On Wednesday, I’ll be sending out the discussion guide as well as detailed info about how to join the call.
I’m excited and look forward to seeing your beautiful faces on Friday!
Love, with lots of cherries on top,
