SUMMARY:An Evening with Pulitzer and National Book Award Finalist Marianne Wiggins
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, August 11th at 7 pm\, Coronado Public Library\, in partnership with Warwick’s\, will host Marianne Wiggins as she discusses and signs her new book\, Properties of Thirst. Marianne Wiggins is the author of eight novels including John Dollar and Evidence of Things Unseen\, which was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and the National Book Award. She has won a Whiting Award\, a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship\, the Heidinger Kafka Prize\, and was shortlisted for the Women’s Prize for Fiction. She lives in Venice\, California. \nThis program is free and seating is general-admission; however\, if you would like to pre-order a book and get priority seating\, please call Warwick’s at 858-454-0347 or visit their website. \nAbout the book\, Properties of Thirst: \n“This magnificent novel opens every little nerve of language and sends jolts of electricity along the spine. It’s a love story\, and a family tale\, and a song of history. It’s about shame and loss and recovery and beauty. It’s a novel to cherish\, composed with great humanity and humour.” ~ Colum McCann \n“This is a novel I wish I could have written. Keen\, unsparing\, and compassionate\, Properties of Thirst reveals a world and a history I thought I knew\, in language so beautiful\, it took my breath away. Vividly alive\, these characters mirror our present moment\, our complex ties to this land and to each other\, our most profound alienations and our fiercest loves.” ~ Ruth Ozeki \nRockwell “Rocky” Rhodes has spent years fiercely protecting his California ranch from the LA Water Corporation. It is here where he and his beloved wife Lou raised their twins\, Sunny and Stryker\, and it is here where Rocky has mourned Lou in the years since her death.\nAs Sunny and Stryker reach the cusp of adulthood\, the country teeters on the brink of war. Stryker decides to join the fight\, deploying to Pearl Harbor not long before the bombs strike. Soon\, Rocky and his family find themselves facing yet another incomprehensible tragedy.\nRocky is determined to protect his remaining family and the land where they’ve loved and lost so much. But when the government decides to build a Japanese-American internment camp next to the ranch\, Rocky realizes that the land faces even bigger threats than the LA watermen he’s battled for years. Complicating matters is the fact that the idealistic Department of the Interior man assigned to build the camp\, who only begins to understand the horror of his task after it may be too late\, becomes infatuated with Sunny and entangled with the Rhodes family.\nProperties of Thirst is a novel that is both universal and intimate. It is the story of a changing American landscape and an examination of one of the darkest periods in this country’s past\, told through the stories of the individual loves and losses that weave together to form the fabric of our shared history. Ultimately\, it is an unflinching distillation of our nation’s essence—and a celebration of the bonds of love and family that persist against all odds. \n  \n
