This month’s selection:

The Yellow House, a memoir by Sarah M. Broom

About the book:

“Sarah M. Broom’s [memoir] The Yellow House tells a hundred years of her family and their relationship to home in a neglected area of one of America’s most mythologized cities. This is the story of a mother’s struggle against a house’s entropy, and that of a prodigal daughter who left home only to reckon with the pull that home exerts, even after the Yellow House was wiped off the map after Hurricane Katrina.”– Provided by publisher.
