Masters of Their Craft: Three Novels

Acclaimed author Mary Gordon‘s novel, There Your Heart Lies, is a deeply moving story about an American woman’s experiences during the Spanish Civil War, the lessons she learned, and how her story will shape her granddaughter’s path. Colm Tóibín’s House of Names: A Novel is a retelling of the story of Clytemnestra—spectacularly audacious, violent, vengeful, lustful, and instantly compelling—and her children. In Voyager, Russell Banks, a lifelong explorer, shares highlights from his travels, bringing together the social, the personal, and the historical, opening a path into the heart and soul of this revered writer.
