East Coast to West Coast: Author Alina Adams Returns to San Francisco
Alina Adams, author of My Mother’s Secret: A Novel of the Jewish Autonomous Region, lives in New York but grew up in San Francisco. This January, she returns to the city where her family immigrated to in 1977 for three in-person author events. Adams is a NYT-bestselling author who has published eighteen novels in multiple genres. My Mother’s Secret, a follow-up to her previous historical novel The Nesting Dolls, tells the remarkable story of a mother’s journey through a little known part of Soviet-Jewish history and a daughter’s search for the truth. Early reviews for the novel have been extremely positive and Foreword Reviews calls My Mother’s Secret “an intimate historical novel in which love equals survival.”
