Description:

We Love L.A. Book Club examines books and authors that weave the diversity and rich history of our city into their works. 



The selection for February is The Perishing by Natashia Deón. This historical and speculative fiction novel is set against the backdrop of 1930s Los Angeles. It follows Lou, a young black woman who wakes up in an alley with no memory of her past. As she puts together the pieces of her identity, she learns that her fate is linked with that of the city she calls home.
