Join Shelley Wood, former West Vancouver resident and best-selling author of The Quintland Sisters, as she discusses her latest book, The Leap Year Gene. Part medical mystery, part love story, the novel traces the past century’s burgeoning understanding of genetics, eugenics and what constitutes “normal” while exploring the tensions, losses, love and sense of duty that can bind families together or split them apart.
Shelley’s book will be available on-site through 32 Books & Gallery.
