In the financial and social malaise of the early 2000s, Mona walks a knife’s edge as she faces down unemployment, underemployment, the complexities of adult relationships, and the downward spiral of her parents’ shattering marriage. Mona’s the sort who says exactly the right thing at absolutely the wrong moments, seeing the world through a cynic’s eyes. Despite her potential, and her top-of-her-class college degree, Mona finds herself unemployed, living with her parents, and adrift in life and love. Mona is a Millennial perfectionist who fails upwards in the midst of the 2008 economic crisis. In this sharp, witty debut, Elizabeth Gonzalez James introduces us to Mona Mireles-observant to a fault, unflinching in her opinions, and uncompromisingly confident in her professional abilities Elizabeth Gonzalez James presents her new novel MONA AT SEA in conversation with Mary Pauline Lowry! One night only on the Raven virtual stage.
