In An American Marriage by New York Times bestselling author Tayari Jones, newlyweds Celestial and Roy are the embodiment of the American Dream and the New South. He is a young executive, and she is an artist on the brink of an exciting career. When Roy is arrested and sentenced to 12 years for a crime Celestial knows he didn’t commit, she becomes unmoored and seeks comfort from a childhood friend and best man at their wedding. An Oprah’s Book Club selection, An American Marriage is a stirring love story that delves deep into the hearts and souls of three people who must reckon with the past while moving forward—with hope and pain—into the future.
“It’s among Tayari’s many gifts that she can touch us soul to soul with her words.” —Oprah Winfrey
