Book & A Bottle: An intentionally paired bottle of wine with each month's book selection
Join us for an informal discussion over great wine each month. Registration is capped, so please make sure to register early if you are planning on attending!
Too Soon follows three generations of Palestinian American women: Arabella, a thirty-five-year-old New York theatre director whose career and dating life are both at a crossroads; her mother Naya, keeping a secret that will upend the family; and her grandmother Zoya, playing matchmaker one last time. When Arabella is offered a chance to direct a risqué Shakespeare adaptation in the West Bank, the family's buried history—fleeing Jaffa in 1948, chasing the American Dream in Detroit and San Francisco, hustling in post-9/11 New York—comes rushing to the surface. Upon learning one of them is living on borrowed time, the three women fight to live, make art, and love on their own terms.
Why we chose it: When the SF Chronicle named it a must-read and The Atlantic called it "a Palestinian American Sex and the City," it got our attention. This one sounded like the perfect summer read: fun and sexy, but with real depth underneath.
