Great Circle

Great Circle by Maggie Shipstead, our August eRead of the Month selection, is an epic, soaring novel perfectly suited for your final weeks of summer reading.
When Marian Graves meets a barnstorming pilot in a beat-up plane as a young girl, it inspires in her an obsession with flight. A dubious arrangement with a wealthy bootlegger allows her to pursue her dream, although the concessions she makes to do so continue to haunt her. Spanning a century and filled with nuanced characters and intricate relationships, this is a classic that will have you lingering over every page, wishing it didn’t have to end.
