Bay Shore-Brightwaters Library To Hold Virtual Fireside Book Discussion

Press release from the Bay Shore-Brightwaters Public Library:

June 30 2020

THE GOWN by Jennifer Robson July 8, 2020 at 7:00 PM via Zoom

Join us to discuss an enthralling historical novel about one of the most famous wedding dresses of the twentieth century–Princess Elizabeth’s wedding gown–and the fascinating women who made it as we go inside the workrooms where it was created. Balancing behind-the-scenes details with a sweeping portrait of a society left reeling by the calamitous costs of victory after World War II, Robson introduces readers to three unforgettable heroines: their points of view alternating and intersecting throughout its pages, whose lives are woven together by the pain of survival, the bonds of friendship, and the redemptive power of love.
