Gabriella Burnham Returns to Nantucket as a Featured Author for the Nantucket Book Festival
rowing up on Nantucket, author Gabriella Burnham always felt a strong
connection to the island and community. In an interview with N Magazine,
she describes it as a “oneness.” “Truly for people who live on the islands, there
isn’t as big of a barrier between the people who live there and the land that we
live on,” she explains. It’s this connection, along with a sense of obligation and
loyalty that one feels toward the community they are from, that she homes in on in
her most recently published book, Wait. This is her second novel, the first being It
Is Wood, It Is Stone. This month, Burnham returns home for the Nantucket Book
Festival (June 13-16) as a featured author.
