SUMMARY:BOOK LAUNCH: Oyster by Marianne Ackerman
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the launch of local author Marianne Ackerman’s latest release\, OYSTER! Join us on Sunday\, February 15th from 4-6 pm EST at Bar le Sparrow! Books will be available for sale and for signing.  \nIn this satirical family drama\, a bestselling author struggles with writer’s block until she reconnects with her ambitious niece at a funeral — perfect for fans of Where’d You Go\, Bernadette. \nOne-time bestselling novelist Amelia Cameron has writer’s block. After her octogenarian father falls off a roof during a windstorm\, his funeral brings the four Cameron siblings together on the family farm\, following years of separation. With the patriarch gone\, familiar relationships begin to crumble. \nWhile the siblings spar\, Amelia’s niece\, Ginny Gupta\, begs her famous aunt for writing advice on her first novel. After a wine-soaked weekend and an innocent bit of typing\, the resulting novel\, The World Is Your Oyster\, brings both women to the brink of scandal with the potential to shake the powerful literary world.
