Gripping Wall Street Novel Featured in LibraryBub Selection for June
LOS ANGELES, June 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Adam Mitzner writes, "The world of high finance is one that I have always found compelling, not only because of the enormous amounts of money — earned, lost and spent — that are at play but also due to the types of people who inhabit that world. They risk everything, every day. Immersed in that type of work experience, it is hard to imagine they have normal lives after the markets close". In Katerina Grishakova's debut novel, The Hermit, the protagonist Andy Sylvain is a 50-year-old Manhattan bond trader who grows disenchanted with his daily hustle and starts to contemplate a clean break. An Indie Reader reviewer comments, "Seeing his elaborate life unravel makes for a sobering statement on mortality and what constitutes a purposeful existence. Grishakova presents searching philosophical questions around these universal themes without losing sight of the humanity within."
LibraryBub is an industry first. Established in 2015, it works in conjunction with all major libraries. It is dedicated to making strong, mutual connections between indie and small-press authors and an extensive network of libraries. The core commitment of the LibraryBub service is to help librarians to identify acclaimed books from the independent publishing sector. LibraryBub introduces thousands of librarians to bestselling and award-winning books from the independent publishing sector. These books hold immense potential for enhancing the lives of their readers. Children's author Jeanne Birdsall recalls that her mother chided her for her overactive imagination. In response, she could have "given up right then and withered away, and might have if it hadn't been for books." She explains, "My mother took me each week to the library, where I was encouraged to wander freely through the children's room, choosing whatever pleased me. On one wall were picture books for little kids; on the other walls, the books with chapters — real books, to my mind, or what we now call middle-grade books. I flew through those middle-grade books, six or more a week, finding solace and hope." Librarians enable writers to make that kind of difference to people's lives, and LibraryBub CEO Alinka Rutkowska considers it a privilege to support them in that role.
