Description
A humorous and heartwarming novel about the people who love books. Sophie Bernstein, owner of an independent bookstore, is struggling to cope with personal losses and feeling burnt out on life. Meanwhile, renowned poet Raymond Chaucer has published a new collection, but his past is shrouded in controversy. When Clemi, the bookstore's events coordinator, discovers she may be Raymond's daughter, her life is turned upside down. As Sophie tries to navigate the complexities of hosting a high-profile author, Clemi must confront her own identity and sense of belonging. This big-hearted comedy features an intergenerational cast of characters, each with their own quirks and flaws, but ultimately united by their love of books. A smart and original novel that explores the endearing qualities of people who find joy in reading and writing.
