Litquake is proud to host the San Francisco launch of Kaui Hart Hemmings' highly anticipated new novel The Possibilities at our May Epicenter. She will be in conversation with Michelle Richmond, author of the new novel Golden State.
In this new novel from the bestselling author of The Descendants, a grieving mother struggles to overcome her son's death, when a strange girl enters her life with a secret that changes them both forever. The Possibilities is a tender and darkly funny story about the fracturing and healing that takes place within a family after tragedy. Told in Hemmings's unsentimental and refreshingly wry style-praised as "audaciously comic" by The New Yorker-this uplifting novel asks difficult questions about what we risk to keep our loved ones close.
Born and raised in Hawaii, Hemmings has degrees from Colorado College and Sarah Lawrence and was a Stegner Fellow at Stanford University. Her first novel, The Descendants, has been published in 20 other countries and was made into an Oscar-winning film directed by Alexander Payne and starring George Clooney. Michelle Richmond is the bestselling author of Golden State, The Year of Fog, No One You Know, Dream of the Blue Room, and the award-winning The Girl in the Fall-Away Dress. A native of Alabama's Gulf Coast, Richmond makes her home in Northern California. Book sales and signings by both authors to follow.
