Author Jennifer Chiaverini: Sonoma Rose (Feb. 24)
Jennifer Chiaverini brings the latest in her New York Times bestselling Elm Creek Quilts series to Hudson on Friday, February 24 at 7 PM. She'll be speaking at Laurel Lake Retirement Community (200 Laurel Lake Drive).
In Chiaverini's new Prohibition-era novel, Sonoma Rose, Rosa Diaz Barclay, mother to eight children, mourns the loss of four who succumbed to the mysterious wasting disease currently afflicting young Ana and Miguel. Rosa lives on a Southern California rye farm with her volatile husband, John, who has lately found another source of income far outside the Federal purview. When an act of violence shatters Rosa's resolve to maintain her increasingly dangerous existence, she flees with the children and her precious heirloom quilts to the mesa where she last saw her beloved mother alive.
