- 1 hour 30 minutes
Join us for this fun summer evening of conversation with these two fantastic authors, featuring a signature summer cocktail at the theater's bar!
Hannah McKinnon is the author of several novels, including Mystic Summer, The Summer House, Sailing Lessons, and The Darlings. She graduated from Connecticut College and the University of South Australia, and lives in Connecticut, with her family, a flock of chickens, and two raggedy rescue dogs. In The Summer Club, McKinnon returns with a fresh beach read about a group of outsiders threatening the status quo at an exclusive New England beach club, Mayhaven. The club prides itself on being an inclusive association of good New England families with good New England values, but the arrival of a new family in the community underscores the unfortunate truth - you’re either on the inside or the outside – and the members of Mayhaven reckon with that truth in this sharply written and refreshing new novel that is perfect for fans of Elin Hilderbrand and Jennifer Weiner. Julie Gerstenblatt is the author of Daughters of Nantucket, and is at work on her second novel. Copies of The Summer Club and Daughters of Nantucket will be available for purchase.
