Book Release Party: 831 Stories x Liz’s Book Bar at Liz’s Book Bar – Brooklyn, NY

831 Stories’ newest release Grape Juice by Eliza Dumais is out! Join us for for a night of character-inspired wine flights, romantic reading, and more. Ticket packages available now, with a limited quantity available for purchase at the door.

A gorgeous, seductive fiction debut from wine and dating columnist Eliza Dumais, about parsing romantic clarity amidst the mind-muddling effects of fermented grapes, the French language, and exhausting physical labor. Perfect for fans of Under the Tuscan Sun, French Kiss, and The Pairing.

Alice is bored—romantically, professionally, creatively. So when her boss, a prominent wine importer, suggests she work a grape harvest in France, she sees it as a welcome opportunity to course-correct her apathy. Though Alice is plenty skeptical of the drink-pray-love premise, she begins to let her guard down when she finds herself picking riesling and practicing her French alongside a charming cast of international characters—and, most notably, Henri, the vineyard owner’s nephew, who’s just as lost as she is.
