SUMMARY:THE SNOWBIRDS: Christina Clancy in conversation with Rowan Beaird
DESCRIPTION:Explore the redemptive power of finding ourselves\, and of being found in “The Snowbirds” by Christina Clancy\, author of “The Second Home” and “Shoulder Season”! \n“The Snowbirds” feature restless people trying to figure out how—and where—they can feel at home in this world. Are they their best\, most authentic selves in a summer house in Cape Cod that holds their secrets and memories? In the small Wisconsin town where they grew up and made mistakes\, swearing never to return? Or maybe they can leave the cold of the Midwest to find themselves—and each other—in Palm Springs. \nJoin Christina at Church & Market (701 56th St) on Sunday\, March 9th at 2 p.m. as part of her book tour for “The Snowbirds”! Christina will be discussing her latest book with fellow women’s fiction author Rowan Beaird\, answering questions from the audience\, and signing books! \nThis is a ticketed event\, so make sure to grab your ticket before they run out! Grab your tickets here: https://www.blue-house-books.com/events/1466220250309 \nABOUT “THE SNOWBIRDS” \nKim and Grant are at a turning point. \nA couple for thirty years\, their “separate but together” partnership is running up against the realities of late middle age: Grant’s mother has died\, the college where he taught philosophy was shuttered\, and their twin girls are grown and gone. Escaping the bitter cold of a Midwestern winter for the hot desert sun of Palm Springs seems as good a solution as any to the more intractable problems they face. \nWhen they arrive at Le Desert\, a quirky condo community where everyone knows everyone’s business\, Kim immediately embraces the opportunity to make new friends and explore a more adventurous side of her personality. Meanwhile\, Grant struggles to find his footing in this unfamiliar landscape\, leaving Kim to wonder if their relationship can survive the snowbird season. But when Grant goes missing on a hike in the Palm Springs mountains\, Kim is forced to consider two terrifying outcomes: either Grant is truly lost\, or this time he’s really left her. \nIs it ever too late to become the person we wanted to be—and is there still time to change into someone better? The exhilarating\, but often confusing transitions of midlife are pitched against the promise and glamour of Palm Springs in this tender\, honest story of what it takes to commit to someone for a lifetime. With compassion and humor\, Clancy explores the redemptive power of finding ourselves\, and of being found. \nABOUT CHRISTINA CLANCY \nChristina Clancy is the author of “The Second Home” and “Shoulder Season”. Her work has also appeared in The New York Times\, The Washington Post\, The Chicago Tribune\, The Sun magazine\, and in various literary journals. She splits her time between Madison and Palm Springs. \nABOUT “THE DIVORCEES” \nLois Saunders thought that marrying the right man would finally cure her loneliness. But as picture-perfect as her husband is\, she is suffocating in their loveless marriage. In 1951\, though\, unhappiness is hardly grounds for divorce—except in Reno\, Nevada. \nAt the Golden Yarrow\, the most respectable of Reno’s famous “divorce ranches\,” Lois finds herself living with half a dozen other would-be divorcees\, all in Nevada for the six-weeks residency that is the state’s only divorce requirement. They spend their days riding horses and their nights flirting with cowboys\, and it’s as wild and fun as Lake Forest\, Illinois\, is prim and stifling. But it isn’t until Greer Lang arrives that Lois’s world truly cracks open. \nGorgeous\, beguiling\, and completely indifferent to societal convention\, Greer is unlike anyone Lois has ever met—and she sees something in Lois that no one else ever has. Under Greer’s influence\, Lois begins to push against the limits that have always restrained her. But how much can she really trust her mysterious new friend? And how far will she go to forge her independence on her own terms? \nSet in the glamorous\, dizzying world of 1950s Reno\, where housewives and movie stars rubbed shoulders at gin-soaked casinos\, “The Divorcées” is a riveting page-turner and a dazzling exploration of female friendship\, desire\, and freedom. \nABOUT ROWAN BEAIRD \nRowan Beaird is a fiction writer whose work has appeared in The Kenyon Review\, The Southern Review\, and The Common\, among others. She is the recipient of the Ploughshares Emerging Writer Award\, and her work has been nominated for a Pushcart. She has received scholarships from the Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference and StoryStudio\, and she currently works at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Her first novel\, “The Divorcées”\, was named a best book of 2024 by Elle\, People\, and the Chicago Review of Books.
