SUMMARY:Teddy Wayne reads from his latest The Au Pair
DESCRIPTION:Steven Hammer was once a literary star. Now\, his career is floundering\, his marriage to a high-powered woman is crumbling\, and the only bright spot in his life is Astrid\, the Norwegian au pair who cares for their children—and reveres his neglected novels. But what begins as a secret infatuation soon spirals into a scandal that makes them both infamous. \nAs a headline-grabbing trial captivates the world with a salacious story of sex\, power\, and betrayal\, Steven must confront the wreckage he’s created—and the deeper insecurities that fueled it. Is Astrid an innocent young woman caught up in a case beyond her control\, or a calculating femme fatale? And how far will he go\, driven by desperation and obsession\, for her professed love? \nWith inexorable momentum and sly\, lucid prose\, Teddy Wayne’s The Au Pair is a sleek literary thriller about desire\, deception\, and the unraveling of a man as he grapples with his fading relevance—when the lies others spin pale beside the fictions we tell ourselves.

SUMMARY:Lindsey Palmer in conversation about her novel Salt Sisters
DESCRIPTION:Twin sisters Jocelyn and Maddy Marx grew up in a tight-knit family on Cape Cod\, but they couldn’t be more different. Jocelyn\, laid-back and dreamy\, still lives in their hometown as a Realtor. Maddy\, intense and ambitious\, left for New York after college and never looked back. Until the summer they turn thirty-one. \nAfter a dramatic fall from grace in her career\, a pregnant Maddy returns to the Cape with her husband and announces she’s back for good. For Jocelyn\, it’s less a reconciliation than a reminder of a life that was ripped away from her and the deep grief she’s carried ever since. Back in each other’s orbit\, the sisters reopen old wounds and are forced to confront what it will take to heal. \n  \nLindsey Palmer will be in conversation with author Emily Nemens.

SUMMARY:Maya C. Popa reads from her latest If You Love That Lady: Poems
DESCRIPTION:If You Love That Lady is a hymn to the pursuit of the unattainable. The title sequence dramatizes the paradox of correspondence: The private worlds shaped by the act of writing\, and the expectant silences that charge our lives. Drawing from nineteenth-century courtship letters\, the collection lingers in the rush of love and the resurrection that follows: “Happiness was no small thing\, / but neither was its cost.” Delivered with piercing elegance and signature wit—“What a formidable excuse he was. / What a pair of borrowed eyes / with a side of Keats”—these poems teach us that desire\, like poetry\, depends on revelation and restraint alike. \nPart elegy to the passing of impossible things\, part ars poetica to the possibility of remaking\, If You Love That Lady explores the inventiveness of longing and its relentless drive\, proving that what breaks us open at last reveals us to ourselves.

SUMMARY:Lauren Willig launches her new book What Happens at Nightfall
DESCRIPTION:In the sprawling Gothic expanse of Brooklyn’s Green-Wood Cemetery\, some secrets refuse to stay buried.\nRecently laid off and searching for purpose\, Jess reluctantly joins her best friend on a supposedly fun nighttime cemetery tour. Separated from her group by accident\, she discovers a bunch of terrified boys and a strange\, ancient key. Both lead to Green-Wood’s surprisingly handsome resident arborist\, Adam Chervinsky.\nRecently widowed\, Adam has more to protect than the leafy residents of Green-Wood. His children\, still dealing with the loss of their mother\, are acting strangely. A haunting is afoot\, and Jess seems to know more than she’s letting on. Sparks fly between Jess and Adam—and the unquiet spirits of Green-Wood rise from their century-long slumber.\nAs Jess and Adam delve deeper into the cemetery’s haunted history\, they uncover a Gilded Age curse\, a ghostly socialite\, and a demonic pact that stretches across generations. What lies hidden in the Green-Wood’s splendid Vanderwilt mausoleum? As the line between the living and the dead blurs\, and the shadows of Green-Wood begin to stir with malevolent intent\, Jess must confront not only the supernatural forces but a shocking connection to the past if she and Adam truly want to live happily ever after.

SUMMARY:Carol LaHines in conversation about her new book Miracle Grow of the Mind
DESCRIPTION:Miracle Grow of the Mind is a funny\, heartbreaking exploration of parenthood\, disability\, medical bureaucracy\, Big Agro\, food allergies\, and environmental pathogens. When Amy and Michael’ s son is born prematurely\, they are thrust into a world of pediatric neurologists\, sensory reintegration therapy\, and endless evaluations. \n  \nMichael also struggles with a mother suffering from dementia\, who insists he is the grown-up version of a brother who died in infancy. When the Kafkaesque Bureau of Preschool Special Education threatens to make their son repeat kindergarten\, the family must confront how they are living and decide which therapies— everything from Mel Finkelstein’ s sensory reintegration sessions to pediatric neurologist visits— are worth the emotional toll. \n  \nWith the help of Griffin’ s babysitter Estella— caught in a secret affair with Josef\, a Hungarian psychiatris navigating his own child’ s special needs— they arrive at an unexpected\, poignant resolution. Smart\, wry\, and deeply human\, this novel examines the ways love\, absurdity\, and hope intersect in the messy work of raising a child. \n  \nCarol will be in conversation with Sheila Kohler\, author  of twelve novels\, three collections of short stories\, and a memoir\,  Once We Were Sisters.

SUMMARY:Julian Tepper launches his new novel Between the Records
DESCRIPTION:Jules and Adam Newman’s complex\, often hostile\, relationship has long fueled their music careers as they followed in their father’s footsteps. After the release of their debut record\, and while struggling to write tracks for the followup\, the brothers begin to clash. Jules\, the younger brother\, feels cast aside and ignored by Adam\, who has long been accustomed to having things his own way. From the studio to the stage and across the countless miles in between\, Julian Tepper’s third novel is a moody and heady work of autofiction based on his days in the Natural History\, which he and his brother formed in 2001. Between the Records examines brothers\, fathers\, rock and roll\, and the personal demons therein—both musical and familial.
