Good Ancestor Book Club: March 2021 Selection

For as long as I can remember, I've loved books.

They have been the one thing, throughout the entire course of my lifetime, that have always brought me a true sense of joy, comfort and meaning. Losing myself in the pages of a book always feels like coming… home. And that's why it has always felt like a guilty pleasure to me that I get to interview some of the most incredible authors through Good Ancestor Podcast.

After two years of hosting the podcast and a long-burning desire to share my love of books with our book-loving audience, I am so excited to share the brand new Good Ancestor Book Club.

Our very first selection is The Prophets by Robert Jones, Jr.

An instant New York Times bestseller, The Prophets is a singular and stunning debut novel about the forbidden union between two enslaved young men on a Deep South plantation, the refuge they find in each other, and a betrayal that threatens their existence.

I had the immense pleasure of interviewing Robert for an upcoming Good Ancestor Podcast episode that you don't want to miss - it drops on March 11th.

In the meantime, we'd love to invite you to join us as a member of Good Ancestor Book Club where we'll be discussing the book in more detail, and joining Robert in live (virtual) conversation on March 25th.
