A Shift in Gravity is about the clash of wills that disrupts the friendship between two friends, both writers (born in the Boomer Generation), when a handsome young journalist (an X’er), visits them in Martha’s Vineyard and insinuates himself into their lives. K.C. is the daughter of a famous black-listed writer from the McCarthy era. She’s had one major novel and never another. Her friend and helpmate, Jewel, also boasts a stunning first novel, but she’s long since buried her literary ambition, The tragic epitaph of Zora Neale Hurston hovers over her. Unexpected literary success tests their once solid relationship and shifts everything in their lives.
Tickets are $100, but there’s a Special Friends of Girls Write Now Discount of $55! Seating is limited. Reservations can be made by emailing ShiftInGravityReading@gmail.com.
