The books Southern indie booksellers are recommending to readers everywhere!

We Were Forbidden by Jacqueline Harpman

A new perspective into Harpman’s beautiful mind! If you loved < em>I Who Have Never Known Men, this collection will give you deeper insight into that novel, as well as into Harpman’s thought processes and experiences as a young girl that clearly inspired her future work. Wouldn’t recommend as an intro to the author, however – more for those familiar with her work and wanting more.

We Were Forbidden by Jacqueline Harpman, (List Price: $18.95, Transit Books, 9798893380583, July 2026)
