Pod Picks Book Club! The King is Always Above the People by Daniel Alarcón

It's the powerful forces of White Whale staff picks and a community book club combined: the Pod Picks Book Club! Each month (usually on the last Thursday), a different bookseller gets to pick a book for the club to read, and they'll host the meeting, too. Book club picks will be 10% off 30 days in advance of the meeting day, to give you time to read it. And plan on grabbing a drink and a snack from the café when you come to the meeting!Ramona's Pod Pick: The King is Always Above the People by Daniel Alarcón

"I’m excited to share this collection of short stories that feels both timely and timeless. Daniel Alarcón’s The King is Always Above the People is an unflinching assemblage of stories that all brilliantly capture the destruction of individual and familial dreams, seemingly unending power struggles and inequity, and the liminal nature of travel/migration." - Ramona

As a lover of little objects, they have an earring collection with more than 400 pairs and can be found organizing their Sonny Angel collection.
