Tayari Jones, AN AMERICAN MARRIAGE
Tayari Jones is one of those “overnight success stories” who has actually been writing beautiful and thoughtful books for years. But it was her fourth novel, AN AMERICAN MARRIAGE, that made her into a bestseller and a cultural phenomenon. This heartbreaking, suspenseful, and intricately crafted book tells the story of a young, ambitious Black couple in Atlanta whose marriage is exploded by the arrest and incarceration of the husband for a crime he did not commit. What follows is a story of loyalty, betrayal, devastation, impossible moral dilemmas and stubborn regeneration. This is an unforgettable tale by a writer at the top of her game.
