SF Historical Fiction Talk (Redwood City)

Local authors Ginny Kubitz Moyer and Irena Smith will be in conversation about Moyer’s newest book, The World at Home.

Set in booming San Francisco during WWII, The World at Home tells the story of Irene Mary Cleary, raised in a Catholic orphanage and trained by an elderly Russian seamstress. Sewing springboards Irene into a career that captures the eyes of the Nob Hill elite. But for a young woman raised by nuns, it’s a jolt to enter the world of business, war, and classism.

In this engrossing story, full of heart and hope, Irene will find a talent that goes beyond her skill with the needle: the ability to navigate a perilous world with style, steel, and grace.
