Joyce Hinnefeld will be at the shop signing her book The Dime Museum on Saturday, September 13th from 1-3pm!
About the Book
In Joyce Hinnefeld’s compelling novel in stories, The Dime Museum, the lives of a vaudevillian male impersonator, a Vietnam vet turned gardener, an aimless poet, a Czech violinist, and a disaffected feminist scholar—along with ex-pats, nurses, nannies, and heart-worn mothers—intersect in surprising ways. As they seek love and solace, their lives are bound up with the historic preoccupations of modernity, meaning, privilege, and inclusion. In the end, the youngest of them are left to face the daunting and ongoing wake of the twentieth century.
