Our Chapter is proud to announce that one of our members, Sophia Michelle DeLanner, has published her debut novel, “About Anna….” available on amazon, Kindle and other e-sources. Below is a synopsis of her book
Anna, a Russian immigrant on the verge of turning forty, is a single mother living with a headstrong teenage daughter in a shabby neighborhood of New York City. After a slew of bad relationships, Anna all but gives up hope of finding her better half—until she meets David. Their all-consuming love seems timeless and everlasting, but his pending divorce from a scheming socialite threatens their future plans.
As Anna navigates her new love, her overbearing mother and meddling aunt attempt to thwart her efforts toward achieving her own happiness. A survivor of abuse who is able to adapt to fluctuating economic conditions in her adopted country, Anna struggles to pull through the many obstacles fate keeps throwing her way.
Engrossing, unpredictable, and moving, the novel will make you laugh out loud one moment and swallow back tears the next. In the vein of Vladimir Nabokov, Mikhail Bulgakov, and Leo Tolstoy, ABOUT ANNA… presents a rich narrative about the joys and hardships of a life in which the road to forgiveness is hard—and the path to self-acceptance is even harder. Delanner’s complex characters will resonate with you long after the final page is turned.
