Come and Hear Kim McLarin Read from Her New Novel JUMP AT THE SUN
“A vibrant, wry voice...McLarin is a writer with significant promise.”—New York Times

Written in Kim McLarin’s trademark bold and fearless voice, JUMP AT THE SUN, explores the challenges of mothering and being mothered in a complex world, witnessed through the lives of three generations. About JUMP AT THE SUN, USA Today wrote, “...her daring novel has the fire-breathing sass of Terry McMillan's Waiting to Exhale and the soul-searching depth of Toni Morrison's Beloved...honest and surprising and provocative...refreshing on a hot summer day.”
