I am participating in the Mom Writer’s Talk Radio Blog Tour. And as a blog tour stop, I’ll be sharing information about different books and projects by moms writers. Cool huh?
For those of you who don’t know, Mom Writer’s Talk Radio is an internet talk show hosted by mom writers Paula Schmitt and Alana Morales. Their show features various authors and fun contests.
As a blogger for this blogging tour, each month, I’ll share reviews, interview, and information about new books by mom writers.
Today I’d like to share with you a little bit about a new fiction book called, “The White Rose” By Jean Hanff Korelitz (Miramax Books, 2006)
Mom Author: Jean Hanff Korelitz is a novelist who lives in Princeton, N.J., with her husband, the Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Paul Muldoon, and their children.
The Book:
White Rose is a romance story about a 48 year old woman who risks everything when she falls in love with Oliver, the 20-something son of her oldest friend.
Marian Kahn, a professor of history at Columbia, has reached a comfortable perch. Married, wealthy, and the famed discoverer of that eighteenth-century adventuress, Lady Charlotte Wilcox, she ought to be content. Instead, she is horrified to find herself profoundly in love with twenty-six-year-old Oliver, the son of her oldest friend. When Marian’s cousin, the snobbish Barton, announces his engagement to Sophie, a graduate student in Marian’s department, Marian, Oliver and Sophie find their affiars woefully entangled, and their hearts turned in unfamiliar directions. All three of them will learn that love may seldom be straightforward, but it’s always a gift.
From the West Village to the Upper East Side, from the Hamptons to Millbrook, The White Rose is at once a nuanced and affectionate reimagining of Strauss’ beloved opera, Der Rosenkavalier, and a mesmerizing novel of our own time and place.
So, if you are looking for good romance novel, you’ll really enjoy this book. Grab yourself a copy of The White Rose at Amazon.com here!
