Book description:
Marriage and Other Monuments, set in Richmond during the tumultuous summer of 2020, tells the story of two estranged sisters whose marriages implode against the backdrop of the social justice protests and the removal of Confederate monuments. The experience brings them closer, while their husbands conspire in a racial reckoning their ancestors would never have dreamed of. The story was inspired by the actual events of that summer and by what it takes to have a successful multi-decade marriage, built on a foundation of give and take that encourages evolution, as individuals and as a couple, even in challenging times.
