Join Unity books as they speak to author Megan Dunn about her newest release, The Mermaid Chronicles. On the surface, this story explores Megan's pursuit of mermaids, but this is story of transformation - into a mother and older woman and the quest for visibility and dreams within this framework. Megan's books are about art and the search for artistic work and voice and you can join Chloe in this conversation on October 26th.
Forty, freckled and facing infertility, writer and disgruntled project manager Megan Dunn hears the siren call that reawakens her lifelong obsession and sets off in pursuit of mermaids. Real mermaids. Diving into the caves of her own life, Megan loses the plot but finds her voice and hears the mermaids singing.
Shimmeringly intellectual and devastatingly deadpan, tragicomic and true, The Mermaid Chronicles is an off-the-hook tale about sex and marriage, mothers and daughters, middle age, women’s work, obsession, the stories we tell ourselves and the myths that define us all.
