Upcoming Event: Author Talk with Emma Straub

Author Emma Straub will discuss her latest novel, THE VACATIONERS, at Perrot on Wednesday, July 30th, 2014 at 7:30 PM, in the Radcliffe Children's Wing (Doors Open at 7 PM). 

Emma Straub brings a vivid, contemporary setting to life in this irresistible, deftly observed novel about the secrets, joys, and jealousies that rise to the surface over the course of a family's two-week stay in Mallorca, Spain. Written with Straub's signature dry humor and tremendous heart, THE VACATIONERS is the richly satisfying story of a family in the midst of change, of the sides of ourselves that we choose to show and those we try to conceal, of the ways we tear each other down and build each other up again.
