Claire and Linda talk about two books that have made a major impact since we received them in store, one an experimental novel and one a memoir, both posing questions we can’t stop thinking about. Weather by Jenny Offill asks if you can still just tend your own garden once you know about the fire (read: climate crisis) outside its walls while Doyle’s memoir wonders if we can be both “held and free” as she relays her journey from a conservative christian background to writing entering into a queer relationship on a world stage.
