Enter a world where time stands still and summer never ends. In the enchanted town of Tannery Bay, it’s July 37, and then July 2 again, but the year is a mystery. Trapped in an eternal loop, the residents embark on an extraordinary journey of self-discovery, unity, and defiance against the forces that seek to divide them.
Otis and Joy, intrepid siblings, work with their family and friends to oppose a formidable adversary: The Owners. These cunning and ruthless old men, driven by insatiable greed, hold the town hostage, exploiting its resources and dividing its people. In this powerful #OwnVoices narrative, Tannery Bay is a captivating tale of Black Joy and Queer Joy and the ways in which family is both biological and chosen, where love transcends boundaries, and where art is a vehicle for change.

Descriere
Tannery Bay by Steven Dunn and Katie Jean Shinkle is a genre-defying, reality-bending novel set in a town where time loops endlessly and summer never ends. In this surreal landscape—where it’s July 37 one day and July 2 the next—siblings Otis and Joy lead a resistance against “The Owners,” a cabal of greedy old men exploiting the town’s people and resources. Blending speculative fiction, magical realism, and radical politics, this #OwnVoices narrative celebrates Black Joy, Queer Joy, and the transformative power of chosen family and art in the face of oppression.
