Cover Reveal: Bloomsbury Girls by Natalie Jenner

 

 

When I was asked to help reveal the new cover of Natalie Jenner's upcoming novel, I jumped at the chance. If you know me, you know I loved The Jane Austen Society. It was one of my favorite novels of 2020. Have you read it?

 

Natalie Jenner has written a new novel, Bloomsbury Girls, which comes out on May 17, 2022. Thanks to St. Martin's, I am able to share the new cover with you all today and some details about this new historical novel.

Goodreads says, "“One bookshop. Fifty-one rules. Three women who break them all.” The Internationally Bestselling author of The Jane Austen Society returns with a compelling and heartwarming story of post-war London, a century-old bookstore, and three women determined to find their way in a fast-changing world.  Bloomsbury Books is an old-fashioned new and rare bookstore that has persisted and resisted change for a hundred years, run by men and guided by the general manager's unbreakable fifty-one rules.  But in 1950, the world is changing, especially the world of books and publishing, and at Bloomsbury Books, the girls in the shop have plans: Vivien Lowry:  Single since her aristocratic fiancé was killed in action during World War II, the brilliant and stylish Vivien has a long list of grievances - most of them well justified and the biggest of which is Alec McDonough, the Head of Fiction. Grace Perkins: Married with two sons, she's been working to support the family following her husband's breakdown in the aftermath of the war. Torn between duty to her family and dreams of her own. Evie Stone:  In the first class of female students from Cambridge permitted to earn a degree, Evie was denied an academic position in favor of her less accomplished male rival. Now she's working at Bloomsbury Books while she plans to remake her own future.As they interact with various literary figures of the time - Daphne Du Maurier, Ellen Doubleday, Sonia Blair (widow of George Orwell), Samuel Beckett, Peggy Guggenheim, and others - these three women with their complex web of relationships, goals and dreams are all working to plot out a future that is richer and more rewarding than anything society will allow."
