This month's book is The Prince of Tides by Pat Conroy

Pat Conroy's classic novel stings with honesty and resounds with drama. Spanning forty years, it's the story of turbulent Tom Wingo, his gifted and troubled twin sister, Savannah, and their struggle to triumph over the dark and tragic legacy of the extraordinary family into which they were born. Filled with the vanishing beauty of the South Carolina Low Country and the dusty glitter of New York City, this book showcases an American original at his very best.
