POETRY U November 20 featuring YA Novelist Alison Ruth

Gallery U Boutique
Event Description

Gallery U’s successful monthly reading series will feature work by poets Tony Ciavolella, Greer Gurland, and novelist Alison Ruth who will be reading from her new young adult novel "Near-Mint Cinderella". Gallery U Boutique is located at 439 South Ave West in Westfield, NJ.

About Near-Mint Cinderella:
In a Tennessee town high in the Appalachians, Kaylee's adolescence is being stolen by her movie-star beautiful mother. While Kaylee slaves in a decrepit rental with half-siblings, her only escape is her fantastical imagination. Kaylee transforms an almost-shuttered doll hospital into a magical Camelot, and its decayed dolls into King Arthur's court. But the adult world looms in the menacing forms of a truant officer and a repossession agent, so Kaylee must weave her own tale of escape from an abandoned trailer park. And though it was once an infamous cult compound, she finds its mysterious past may liberate her from a dead-end future, where imagination is the only thing about her that is free.
