Gabriella Burnham Returns to Nantucket as a Featured Author for the Nantucket Book Festival

rowing up on Nantucket, author Gabriella Burnham always felt a strong

connection to the island and community. In an interview with N Magazine,

she describes it as a “oneness.” “Truly for people who live on the islands, there

isn’t as big of a barrier between the people who live there and the land that we

live on,” she explains. It’s this connection, along with a sense of obligation and

loyalty that one feels toward the community they are from, that she homes in on in

her most recently published book, Wait. This is her second novel, the first being It

Is Wood, It Is Stone. This month, Burnham returns home for the Nantucket Book

Festival (June 13-16) as a featured author.
