Notes From Your Bookseller

As a Barnes & Noble Discover Award winner, a personal favorite, and now a movie starring Frances McDormand—we strongly encourage you to read this book.

The inspiration for Chloé Zhao's celebrated film starring Frances McDormand, winner of the Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actress
