Morgan Callan Rogers, "Red Ruby Heart in a Cold Blue Sea"
|
Originally published in German in 2010, Red Ruby Heart has come to America and the English language. Maine native Morgan Callan Rogers joins us to discuss and sign her first novel. Red Ruby Heart in a Cold Blue Sea is a captivating coming of age tale that is almost cinematic in its richly drawn portraits of character and place and is an extraordinary snapshot of a bygone America through the eyes of an inspiring girl blazing her own path to womanhood. Told from the perspective of Florine Gilham, in her no nonsense Maine dialect, the story begins right before the center of Florine’s world—her mother—disappears forever. |
