Book Signing for Nantucket Author Kathryn Kay
 Greenville, SC, March 13, 2012 - Nantucket author Kathryn Kay will be signing copies of her debut novel, The Gilder (Kensington, paperback, $15.00), at Fiction Addiction on Tuesday, April 3rd, from 11am-1pm.
In Marina Nesmith's skilled hands, even the most tarnished picture frame or objet d'art can be made perfect once again. Her life, too, seems flawless, at least on the surface. But more and more, Marina is conscious of what she lacks - someone to share her joys and sorrows with, confidence in the decisions she's made, and the courage to tell her teenage daughter Zoe the truth about her father.
Then Marina is invited to return to Florence, where she lived years before while learning her trade as a gilder. In those heady days, she wandered the city's picturesque streets, marveling at the masterpieces in the Duomo and the Pitti Palace. In the church of Santa Croce, she met Thomas, an American photographer who, along with his wife Sarah, introduced Marina to a thrilling, bohemian world of art and beauty. Through them she also learned about love, lies, and the way one mistake can multiply into many. Now, as her past and present collide, Marina will finally have to move beyond the intricate veneer she's crafted around herself, and find the life that she - and Zoe - have been looking for.
 Following college, Kathryn Kay spent five years living in Florence, Italy, where she studied restoration and gilding. Kathryn is the founder of the Nantucket Writers Studio, which offers writing workshops for women. She has three adult children and lives on Nantucket Island with her husband, Robert Young, who is a cousin of Greenville's talented jeweler, Llyn Strong.
The Gilder was selected as a January 2012 Indie Next Pick, a monthly list of books that independent booksellers from across the country recommend.
