"Yesteryear" by Caro Claire Burke @ Beveridge Place Pub (West Seattle)
About the event
Join us on Sunday, November 15th at 2:00pm for a discussion of "Yesteryear" by Caro Claire Burke. This month we'll be venturing out of our usual stomping grounds to meet at Beveridge Place Pub in West Seattle.
Description of the book:
Natalie lives a traditional lifestyle – and her followers are sick with envy. Her charming farmhouse on her working ranch is artfully cluttered, her husband is a handsome cowboy, her homemade sourdough boules are each more beautiful than the last. So what if there are nannies and producers and industrial-grade ovens behind the scenes? What her followers don’t know won’t hurt them.
Then, one morning, Natalie wakes up in a strange, horrible version of reality. Her home, her husband, her children—they’re all familiar, but something’s off. Is this a hoax? A reality show? A test from God? Natalie knows just two things for sure: this isn't her perfect life, and she must escape, by any means possible.
As darkly funny as it is shocking and gripping, Yesteryear is an electrifying examination of tradition, fame, faith and the grand performance of womanhood, from a thrilling new talent in fiction.
