Beautifully written and seductive, Under a Dark Summer Sky is at once a glorious love story, a fascinating slice of social history, and a mesmerizing account of what it’s like to be in the eye of a hurricane. Tonight, Kristin and Vanessa talk about where Vanessa finds inspiration, and how the novel got its start.
