Jamie Brenner, BLUSH

"Your wine can never escape its place of origin. As people, neither can we. We can reinvent ourselves over and over again, but we can never change where we began." Zibby and Jamie Brenner reconnected for a special BookHampton event celebrating Jamie's latest novel, Blush. The two talked about the research Jamie conducted before setting her story at a Long Island winery, the benefits and detriments of writing books for specific demographics, and the inspiration she took from the dishy female writers of the 1980s.
