X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Holly Gramazio's sizzling debut novel\, <e
 m>The Husbands\,</em> delights in asking: how do we navigate life\, love\,
  and choice in a world of never-ending options?</p>\n<p>When Lauren return
 s home to her flat in London late one night\, she is greeted at the door b
 y her husband\, Michael. There&rsquo\;s only one problem&mdash\;she&rsquo\
 ;s not married. She&rsquo\;s never seen this man before in her life. But a
 ccording to her friends\, her much-improved decor\, and the photos on her 
 phone\, they&rsquo\;ve been together for years.</p>\n<p>As Lauren tries to
  puzzle out how she could be married to someone she can&rsquo\;t remember 
 meeting\, Michael goes to the attic to change a&nbsp\;lightbulb and abrupt
 ly disappears. In his place\, a new man emerges\, and a new\, slightly alt
 ered life re-forms around her. Realizing that her attic is creating an inf
 inite supply of husbands\, Lauren confronts the question: If swapping live
 s is as easy as changing a lightbulb\, how do you know you&rsquo\;ve taken
  the right path? When do you stop trying to do better and start actually&n
 bsp\;living?</p>\n<p>A Different Drummer Books will be on site with books 
 for sale and signing after the talk.</p>\n<p>Presented in partnership with
  Anchor Canada and A Different Drummer Books</p>\n<h5>About the Author</h5
