Raise a glass with us to bestselling author Eliza Knight at our champagne celebration for the launch of Confessions of a Grammar Queen! This feminist, fun, and spirited novel whisks readers into the publishing world of 1960s New York, where a determined heroine—and her steadfast canine companion, Frank—navigate ambition, wit, and stirring emotions. Join us for an evening of bubbly, lively conversation, and a toast to this delightful new read! Eliza visited us last year for her novel The Queen's Faithful Companion: A Novel of Queen Elizabeth II and Her Beloved Corgi, Susan. We had a blast! Eliza Knight's latest is Lessons in Chemistry meets Mad Men--plus an adorable dog! Whip-smart Bernadette Swift has brains, style, and ambition to burn, determined to work her way up from first female copyeditor in her office to first female CEO of a publishing house. On her side she's got an army of friends in her feminist book club, a handsome senior editor paying court, and a devoted Great Dane named Frank--but with a spiteful boss and an army of snickering co-workers determined to see a woman fail at any cost, will Bernadette ever be able to crack that glass ceiling?
