This summer 2020 reading offers two lyrical historical novels: Colin Hester’s DEATH & THE BUTTERFLY is coming from Counterpoint Press in June. Patty Dann’s THE WRIGHT SISTER, published by Harper Perennial in August, will make you rethink the events surrounding 9/11 and the Wright Brothers. Just as soon as Bill Mann’s THE CONTENDER (check out The 15 most fascinating revelations in The Contender: The Story of Marlon Brando) hit book shelves last fall, he signed a contract with Harper Collins for BACALL & BOGIE, the penultimate hetero normative duo is due in 2023. THE CONTENDER paperback is due out this fall from Harper Collins. Historical nonfiction is in the air — Tom Kepler’s riveting narrative about the history of the stately Il de France ocean liner is signed with the Lyons Press. Fordham University Press’ Empire State Series issues Matthew Spady’s THE NEIGHBORHOOD MANHATTAN FORGOT: Audubon Park and the Families Who Shaped It.
Can’t say what you really think? If so, it is imperative that you read Dey Street’s YES, I CAN SAY THAT: When They Come for the Comedians We are All in Trouble by Judy Gold due out this summer.
