Join us for a lively discussion about, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid, Thursday, September 12, 2024 @ 6:00 pm
Summary:
Evelyn Hugo, a reclusive and former Hollywood star, announces the auction of her collection of famous gowns to raise money for a breast cancer charity in honor of her late daughter. She specifically requests magazine reporter Monique Grant to interview her about the auction. Monique, who has no personal connection to her, is confused as to why Evelyn insists she be the one to conduct the interview. When the two meet, Evelyn reveals that she is not interested in giving an interview to Monique’s magazine, but instead wants Monique to write her biography. When pressed for an explanation as to why, Evelyn only tells her that she found Monique through an article that she had written about assisted suicide, and otherwise promises that she will answer all of Monique’s questions once she is done recounting her story. Monique accepts the offer, and Evelyn begins sharing the events of her life.
