Virtual Q&A with Author Virginia Pye

This one's for those of you who love historical fiction set in Boston as well as books related to writing and stories of finding yourself! We're chatting with author Virginia Pye about her most recent book "The Literary Undoing of Victoria Swann". Bring your questions as this will be a rapid fire Q&A! About the book: Set in Gilded Age Boston, The Literary Undoing of Victoria Swann tells the story of a successful woman author of romance and adventure novels who becomes a champion of women’s rights as she takes on the literary establishment and finds her true voice, both on and off the page. Everything changes for Victoria when she goes against her publisher’s expectations and abandons her frivolous style to tell her own story. She loses her income, her husband, and her standing with her publisher as she joins the legions of hard-working women who have been her most faithful readers. As she fights on behalf of these women, her new young Harvard-educated editor becomes her unexpected ally, while he himself dares to become a more liberated, modern gentleman. The Literary Undoing of Victoria Swann shows writing and reading as acts of defiance that can liberate us from narrow, constrained lives—and how revision in life and revision on the page are intimately entwined.
