Busboys and Poets Books welcomes author Barbara Rhine to sign and discuss Tell No Lies
Set in California's San Joaquin Valley during the early 1970's, TELL NO LIES is about a Black Panthers fugitive on the run, a Latino farm worker's union organizer and a Jewish feminist from Berkeley, caught in a love triangle during one of the largest UFW marches in history.
Diving deep into the heart of America's radical culture and ethnic politics to tell a powerful love story, Barbara Rhine evokes experiences at once historically specific and timelessly universal.
