Drop by The Booksmith on Monday, May 15th for the free book talk and signing of “Salt Houses” by Hala Alyan from 7:30 pm to 8:30 pm in San Francisco, California.

Join them to celebrate an amazing new literary voice and her debut novel, Salt Houses, about a Palestinian family caught between present and past, between displacement and home.

About the book: “On the eve of her daughter Alia’s wedding, Salma reads the girl’s future in a cup of coffee dregs. She sees an unsettled life for Alia and her children; she also sees travel, and luck. While she chooses to keep her predictions to herself that day, they will all soon come to pass when the family is uprooted in the wake of the Six-Day War of 1967.”

Free, an RSVP is appreciated but not required.
