Main Point Books is always thrilled to welcome back Stephanie 
Feldman, especially when launching a new book! She'll be joined by guest
 host A. C. Wise.
This event will be in our lower level event space.
About "The Night Parade"
A
 teenage girl realizes her lifelong best friends are being seduced by a 
supernatural force, and must choose between being alone and being 
ensnared together. A young woman in a troubled relationship finds 
herself caught between two versions of the same boyfriend—one volatile, 
and one too good to be true. A lonely mother fears her young child’s 
best friend is a witch. And, in the titular novella, a new widow must 
decide how far she’s willing to go to steal her husband back from the 
dead.
In The Night Parade and Other Stories, 
Stephanie Feldman revisits the mid-Atlantic’s eerie legends and settings
 to explore complicated friendships, romantic entanglements, 
motherhood, and grief with a deft hand, a piercing eye, and a feminist 
twist.
