The cover of my new novel, An American Marriage.
Silver Sparrow author Tayari Jones spins the tale of newlyweds Celestial and Roy, an artist and executive, respectively, who try to grasp their own version of American Dream in the New South. A wrench gets thrown into that plan, though, when Roy is sentenced to 12 years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit, and Celestial ends up growing closer to her childhood friend Andre in Roy’s absence. But five years later, Roy’s conviction is suddenly overturned, and he returns to Atlanta eager to re-start his life with Celestial, only to find that things aren’t how he left them at all.
