Meet Author Melanie Benjamin, Booksigning
Meet Melanie Benjamin, author of the national bestseller, Alice I Have Been (2010) and The Autobiography of Mrs. Tom Thumb (2011), delivers another stellar historical novel based on the experiences of an extraordinary woman. In the spirit of Loving Frank and The Paris Wife, acclaimed novelist Melanie Benjamin pulls back the curtain on the marriage of one of America’s most extraordinary couples: Charles Lindbergh and Anne Morrow Lindbergh. Though their courtship is the stuff of every girl’s romantic fantasy, time and reality combine to reveal a much different story. "Plagued by tragedy and often stifled by her domineering husband, Anne Morrow Lindbergh eventually manages to carve out a quasi-independent life and career for herself. Fictional biography at its finest; serious readers may want to pair this with the recently published Against Wind and Tide, the sixth and final volume of Anne Morrow Lindbergh’s copious letters and journal entries." (Margaret Flanagan, Booklist). For more information: call (708) 422-8522.
Copies of her book will be available for purchase and signing after the presentation.
