David Stippick of Lark & Owl Booksellers in Georgetown, Texas, recommends a novel they call “a love letter to readers.”
It’s Erica Bauermeister’s “No Two Persons,” and David says the novel feels a bit like the movie “Love Actually,” in that we follow the stories of multiple characters. Here, they are connected by their experience with a single book.
Fictional author Alice writes a beautiful debut novel. We then step into the lives of nine readers who encounter the book. Their takeaways and interpretations vary depending on their experiences; hence “No Two Persons” will have the same response.
We follow a homeless teen, an actor who records the audiobooks, a grieving widower, an artist who creates a new work inspired by the read — and more.
As a lifelong reader, David says, the novel “felt very personal. It felt like the author in the book was talking to me.”
David underlined multiple passages that felt particularly moving, then gave the book away to a fellow reader — which means they now want to buy another copy to read it again.
