Rancho Santa Fe Library Guild hosts author

Nashville-based author Jennie Fields was the guest speaker at the RSF Library Guild Aug. 13 to talk about her latest work, “The Age of Desire.”

Set mostly in Paris in the early 20th century, the novel tells the story of Edith Wharton’s affair with journalist Morton Fullerton, but it also delves into her sexual awakening and her relationships with her husband Teddy and friend, former governess and secretary Anna Bahlmann.
