October Buzz Pick: Matrix by Lauren Groff

We’re beyond excited to announce our October Buzz Pick: Matrix by Lauren Groff! Stick with @IndieBookBuzz and Bookfinity all month long as we bring you an inside look at this unforgettable novel (longlisted for the 2021 National Book Award for fiction), a mesmerizing portrait of consuming passion, aberrant faith, and a woman that history moves both through and around.

Join us with Riverhead Books on October 26th for an exclusive virtual event, where Lauren Groff and Gail Vinett, Lead Content Manager at Ingram Content Group, will talk about Matrix. An instant New York Times bestseller and Groff’s first novel since Fates & Furies, Matrix follows 17-year-old Marie de France, the new prioress of an impoverished English abbey in 1158. Marie is determined to chart a bold new course for the women she leads and protects, but in a shifting, corroding world – one that can never reconcile itself with her existence – will the sheer force of her vision be bulwark enough? It’s a book – and conversation – you won’t want to miss as we go behind the scenes.
