Nantucket Book Festival – ‍Wally Lamb with Tim Ehrenberg

Wally Lamb is the author of six best-selling novels including the #1 New York Times best-sellers and Oprah’s Book Club picks – She’s Come Undone and I Know This Much is True. The beloved writer will be in conversation with Nantucket Book Foundation President and creator of Tim Talks Books, Tim Ehrenberg to discuss Wally’s first novel in eight years, The River is Waiting, a propulsive story of a young father who, after an unbearable tragedy, reckons with the possibility of atonement for the unforgivable. The two will talk about our prison system, the act of forgiveness, emotional intelligence, and the transformative power of fiction.
