poetic tales and Upton Sinclair’s pursuit of the truth, plenty of authors make our state proud. In

honor of the many literacy days in March, our team chose three Maryland-based authors we think you’re going to love.
Alice McDermott
Recognized for her New York Times bestselling classics, Alice McDermott writes riveting tales of everyday families and the powerful stories found within the mundane. Born in Brooklyn, New York, McDermott uses the city as a backdrop in many of her stories, but readers are treated to midcentury and modern tales of love, loss, and lessons found in the
family tree. Each of her many books keeps readers riveted, and their varied premises include the transformation in growing up and the flaws found in even the most perfect lives. As for her Maryland connection, McDermott spins her tales from her Bethesda, Maryland, home!

Orly Konig
What could be better than a Gaithersburg-based author? How about one who has a story based in Maryland, for starters! Orly Konig’s debut book, “The Distance Home,” pulls readers into our gorgeous, rural Maryland landscape to tell the story of Emma Metz, who is returning home after fleeing from tragedy. Upon her father’s death, Emma is forced to confront her past and those she left back home in Maryland on a journey to learning more about herself and her family. In 2018, Konig released “Carousel Beach.” When Maya Brice enlists the help of 90-year- old Hank Hauser to restore a beloved carousel, she learns more about her grandmother’s secret love and the bonds that connect three strong women.
