JANUARY PICK

Mothers and Sons by Adam Haslett

The book follows Peter, an overworked NYC asylum lawyer with a complicated love life, and his mother Ann, who’s built a women’s retreat center while trying to move on from her past. Their estrangement has lasted decades, but a haunting case in Peter’s work dredges up a shared secret the pair has to confront together. Haslett’s writing is powerful, gut-punchy, and incredibly human. Fair warning: This is not light reading, but it’s deeply rewarding. I’m already looking forward to unpacking every tense, tender moment with you all!

We will announce each month’s selection on the 15th of the prior month. If you're not interested in a particular month's book selection, you have the option to skip that month's shipment and receive a gift card for the equivalent amount. If you'd like to opt for the gift card, you have until the 17th to let us know. Plus, if you swap your book for a gift card, you'll still have access to the subscribers-only content portal.

When you sign up for a Book Club subscription, our system will automatically cancel your membership, so you aren’t paying double! Membership is a complimentary perk of any Book Club subscription.
