Lynda Cohen Loigman on The Wartime Sisters

The Wartime Sisters – Lynda Cohen Loigman joins us for a discussion!  

New York, NY –  On Tuesday, January 22nd at 7:00pm, independent bookstore Book Culture on Columbus welcomes author Lynda Cohen Loigman to read from and discuss her new book, The Wartime Sisters. She will be joined in conversation by Fiona Davis.

For fans of Lilac Girls, the next powerful novel from the author of Goodreads Choice Awards semi finalist The Two-Family House about two sisters working in a WWII armory, each with a deep secret.

Two estranged sisters, raised in Brooklyn and each burdened with her own shocking secret, are reunited at the Springfield Armory in the early days of WWII. While one sister lives in relative ease on the bucolic Armory campus as an officer’s wife, the other arrives as a war widow and takes a position in the Armory factories as a “soldier of production.” Resentment festers between the two, and secrets are shattered when a mysterious figure from the past reemerges in their lives.

Lynda Cohen Loigman grew up in Longmeadow, Massachusetts. She received a B.A. in English and American Literature from Harvard College and a law degree from Columbia Law School. Lynda practiced trusts and estates law in New York City for eight years before moving out of the city to raise her two children with her husband. She wrote The Two-Family House while she was a student of the Writing Institute at Sarah Lawrence College. The Two-Family House was chosen by Goodreads as a best book of the month for March, 2016, and was nominee for the Goodreads 2016 Choice Awards in Historical Fiction. The Wartime Sisters is her second novel.

Fiona Davis is a USA Today bestselling author of historical fiction set in iconic New York City buildings. She first came to New York as an actress, but fell in love with writing after getting master’s degree at Columbia Journalism School. Her books have been translated into over a dozen languages and her latest, The Masterpiece, was a LibraryReads and TheSkimm Reads pick. She’s based in New York City.
