Show Notes
Allegra Goodman’s latest, This is Not About Us is a treasure. Centered around the Rubenstein family, each chapter examines the Rubensteins from a different lens, a different perspective. The stories are funny, messy, heartbreaking, captivating; all adjectives that describe complex families. You will laugh, you will be moved, and you will be left with some brilliant tableaus of an American family as they struggle through life. We also have a terrific bookstore owner, Sarah Lacey (The Best Bookstore in Palm Springs and The Best Bookstore in Union Square, and yes, those are the names of the stores, brilliant right?). Come join us!
