From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of “Orphan Train,” Christina Baker Kline brings a boldly original reimagining of the astonishing true story of two sisters in nineteenth-century North Carolina — Kline’s own distant relatives — who married world-famous conjoined twins from Siam. When the twins’ lives become entangled with theirs, they must navigate loyalty, longing, and identity in a world where everything — including race, class, and gender — is rigidly defined. Spanning five decades and unfolding against the backdrop of a fractured nation hurtling toward war, “The Foursome” is both intimate and epic: a story of love and constraint, identity and reinvention.
Arcade Books of Rye will be onsite with copies of “The Foursome,” and the author will be available to sign purchased copies.
