SUMMARY:Abraham Verghese\, The Covenant of Water
DESCRIPTION:Join McIntyre’s Books for Abraham Verghese\, The Covenant of Water on Wed\, Jun 4\, 7pm-8pm. McIntyre’s is delighted to welcome back Dr. Abraham Verghese for a special event to celebrate the paperback release of his New York Times blockbuster novel\, The Covenant of Water. Dr. Verghese will discuss with WUNC’s Anita Rao\, the award-winning journalist\, host\, creator\, and executive editor of “Embodied\,” a weekly radio show and podcast about sex\, relationships & health. \nTo attend\, one must purchase a copy of The Covenant of Water from McIntyre’s. If you are bringing a guest\, they will need to purchase a sidecar book of either The Covenant of Water or one of Dr. Verghese’s other books: Cutting for Stone\, The Tennis Partner\, or My Own Country. To purchase your copy of The Covenant of Water\, click here. \nBOOK SUMMARY \n\n\nThe Covenant of Water is the long-awaited new novel by Abraham Verghese\, the author of the major word-of-mouth bestseller Cutting for Stone\, which has sold over 1.5 million copies in the United States alone and remained on the New York Times bestseller list for over two years. \nSpanning the years 1900 to 1977\, The Covenant of Water is set in Kerala\, on South India’s Malabar Coast\, and follows three generations of a family that suffers a peculiar affliction: in every generation\, at least one person dies by drowning—and in Kerala\, water is everywhere. At the turn of the century\, a twelve-year-old girl from Kerala’s long-existing Christian community\, grieving the death of her father\, is sent by boat to her wedding\, where she will meet her forty-year-old husband for the first time. From this unforgettable new beginning\, the young girl—and future matriarch\, known as Big Ammachi—will witness unthinkable changes over the span of her extraordinary life\, full of joy and triumph as well as hardship and loss\, her faith and love the only constants. \nA shimmering evocation of a bygone India and of the passage of time itself\, The Covenant of Water is a hymn to progress in medicine and to human understanding\, and a humbling testament to the difficulties undergone by past generations for the sake of those alive today. It is one of the most masterful literary novels published in recent years. \n\n\nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nAbraham Verghese is a graduate of the Iowa Writers’ Workshop and the author of the NBCC Award finalist My Own Country and the New York Times Notable Book\, The Tennis Partner. His most recent book\, Cutting for Stone\, spent 107 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list and sold over two million copies worldwide. It was translated into over twenty languages and is being adapted for film by Anonymous Content. Verghese was awarded the National Humanities Medal by President Obama\, has received six honorary degrees\, and is an elected member of the National Academy of Medicine and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He lives and practices medicine in Stanford\, California\, where he is the Linda R. Meier and Joan F. Lane Provostial Professor in the Stanford University School of Medicine. A decade in the making\, The Covenant of Water is his first book since Cutting for Stone. \nFearrington Village is part of the Chatham County Craft Beverages & Country Inns Trail.
