Seating Arrangements by Maggie Shipstead
Winn Van Meter is preparing for his daughter's wedding on an exclusive island off the coast of Massachusetts. Winn’s wife Biddy has planned the wedding with military precision, but the arrangements are threatened by misplaced desire, marital infidelity and a fundamental loss of faith in the rituals of American life. Shipstead's debut novel, described by NPR as "Edith Wharton with a millennial generation edge," won the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and the Dylan Thomas Prize.
Moderated by Readers Advisory Librarian Cindy Haiken. To participate and for details about meeting virtually or in-person, contact Cindy Haiken at chaiken@wallingfordlibrary.org.
