#1 New York Times bestselling author MAGGIE STIEFVATER joins BOOKSTORM Podcast to discuss THE LISTENERS! Our followers know Maggie from her bestselling young adult fantasy novels, but now she explodes onto the adult fiction scene with this genre-changing novel that will leave you in a state of wonder! The setting: the fictional Avallon luxury hotel at the start of WWII ... with a hint of otherness. What is this mysterious sweetwater? How will a hotel that offers the ultimate in luxury -- individual attention in a place where people know your name and every want -- survive the forced housing of Nazis, who specialize in erasing the individual? We talk about class, society, loneliness, change, and the role of myth. Aren't we built relationally? What happens when duty tries to take advantage or even override that sense? And wait until you hear about Maggie's real-life experience in a Scottish Castle that mimicked some of the feelings she evokes in this story! Join us - you'll be so glad you did!
