Why we picked this
Semple's Bernadette was one of those rare novels that felt genuinely surprising on every page — her new book promises the same blend of sharp observation and warm absurdity.
Maria Semple became a household name with Where’d You Go, Bernadette, a novel that managed to be both a page-turner and a genuinely original work of literary fiction. Her books have been translated into forty languages, and her background writing for television gives her prose a distinctive rhythm and comic timing.
Go Gentle is her latest novel, and this evening at Tattered Cover offers a chance to hear her discuss the new work and the craft of writing fiction that balances humor with emotional depth.
