Beth Duke, the Best Selling Author of ‘It All Comes Back to You,’ Announces the Upcoming Release of Her New Book ‘Anywhen’
Beth Duke, the Best Selling Author of It All Comes Back to You, has announced the upcoming release of her new book Anywhen. Anywhen will be released on November 14, 2024, published by The Art of Dixie.
Book Description:
Baezy is born in 2069, the centennial of the legendary Woodstock Music and Art Fair. Everything peace, love, and flower power is celebrated that year in a wave of nostalgia that takes over fashion, music, and the public’s imagination. She grows up listening to and loving the artists of that time, dreaming of witnessing everyone from Joan Baez to Santana in person. When presented with the opportunity to time-travel, Baezy immediately chooses Woodstock as her destination. She plans to enjoy a glorious weekend of vibrant sights and sounds; her bell bottoms and a peasant blouse are packed for the adventure and she’s excited to surprise her great-great-great-grandmother, Kelly Adams.
While Baezy’s certainly not a typical Woodstock attendee, Kelly isn’t either. She is at the very beginning of a stellar career researching artificial intelligence in the 1960s, and will later develop much of what will lead to the utopian society Baezy lives in. Kelly’s future family is immensely proud of her historic accomplishments.
The contrast between Baezy's 2101 and 1969 is stunning from her first moment. Woodstock exceeds her wildest expectations, but holds far more than an introduction to her distant grandmother. Baezy quickly finds herself in life-altering situations she could never have anticipated.
Part sci-fi, part historical fiction, and all heart, Anywhen is an intriguing concoction sure to delight readers. Imagine it as Cloud Cuckoo Land meets Back to the Future meets The Woodstock Music and Art Fair of 1969. This is a must-read for fans of The Invisible Life of Addie Larue, The Time Traveler's Wife, and The Midnight Library.
“Engaging, fascinating, and a fun read…” —RECOMMENDED by The US Review of Books
“Warm, funny and nostalgic, Anywhen is a magical love story, a sobering glance at the future of A.I., and proof that even as the world changes, human desires never will. If you enjoy time travel with a southern twist, this is the book for you.” —Karen Emilson, author of Also Known as Jaime Dorn
