FREE IN-STORE EVENT: Bookshop Santa Cruz welcomes San Francisco author Martha Conway for a reading and signing of We Meet Apart—her spellbinding historical novel which explores sisterhood, survival, and sacrifice.

Conway will be in conversation with award-winning author Karen Joy Fowler.

“This deeply engrossing story follows two American sisters trapped in Ireland during World War II as they search for love and safety. With a touch of magical realism, We Meet Apart offers a fresh twist on historical fiction, asking how much you will give up for your family? Martha Conway is one of my very favorite writers, whose novels often explore the bond and tensions between sisters. This is her finest work yet.” —Malena Watrous, author of If You Follow Me
