SUMMARY:PRIDE Montréal Book Launch: PALM MERIDIAN by debut author Grace Flahive
DESCRIPTION:Join novelist Grace Flahive in conversation with Dr. Alex Ketchum for the Montréal release party for her stunning debut novel Palm Meridian\, which offers a rare combination of timely themes\, Montréal ties\, and incredible storytelling. \nThursday\, June 19. Doors open at 5 pm. Speeches to start by 6 pm. \nLOCATION: Librairie Paragraphe Bookstore (Sherbrooke St. W and McGill College Ave) \nADDRESS: 2220 McGill College Ave\, Montréal\, Quebec H3A 3P9 \nDon’t miss this unforgettable book launch during Pride Month—a celebration of LGBTQ+ stories\, voices\, and community. \nSet in 2067 in Florida\, the novel imagines a retirement resort for queer women. The story unfolds between Florida and Montréal\, spanning a single day and also seventy-seven years\, as resident Hannah Cardin celebrates the final night of her life with an epic party. With themes of queer joy and love in later life\, Palm Meridian will resonate with readers looking for inclusive\, uplifting stories. Grace Flahive was inspired to write the novel as a way to explore the beauty of queer relationships in old age — a perspective rarely seen in literature.
