Novelist Louis Bayard Visits The Book Stall with his new book, “Jackie & Me!”
On Tuesday, June 28th at 6:30 PM, Louis Bayard, author of Courting Mr. Lincoln, returns to The Book Stall to discuss his wonderful new novel, Jackie & Me, already a staff favorite! Jackie & Me is a brilliantly wrought, witty, and sensitive novel about the young Jacqueline Bouvier before she became that Jackie–and about a marriage that almost never happened.

In a starred review, Booklist says of Jackie & Me, “[Bayard] brings a poignant empathy, persuasive intimacy, and nuanced imagination to his interpretation of a relatively unexamined chapter in Kennedy lore.”
