Jane Gabin Reads From New Book & Signing Session @ Tucson Jewish Community Center
Feb 24 @ 10:00 am – 12:00 pm

The Paris Photo is a work of historical fiction, set partly at the end of WWII, partly in the recent present, linked by a picture taken in 1945. Interweaving mystery, romance, and historical research, The Paris Photo is a story of how the traumas of wartime ripple into the present. The book creates a vivid picture of life during the dark days of Occupation, as well as of the contemporary city that reveals its own scars from the war around almost every corner.

Jane S. Gabin is a writer and educator from New York City and now based in Chapel Hill, NC. She has published several academic books; this is her first novel.

THIS IS A FREE EVENT!
