About this Event

We’re thrilled to launch the Petaluma Museum’s new book club, exploring the stories that shape our world. Our first selection, Floating in the Middle, is the highly anticipated third novel from award-winning British-American author and Petaluman Frances Rivetti. This gripping work of domestic noir meets climate suspense as a group of longtime friends reunite for a weekend on California's crumbling coast to plan their ideal intentional community—only to discover that building utopia may require darker compromises than they imagined.

Set against the dramatic backdrop of the eroding Sonoma Coast, Floating in the Middle follows friends whose weekend retreat becomes a pressure cooker of buried secrets, conflicting visions, and mounting desperation as the changing landscape mirrors the instability of their relationships. When environmental crisis becomes the catalyst for both hope and betrayal, the novel asks: How far would you go to create the community of your dreams?

Pick up your copy at a bookstore near you beginning November 1, then join us at the Museum on November 19, 5-7pm, for a reading and discussion with the author.

This is a free event. RSVPs are appreciated.
