Edgartown Book Club at the Carnegie: Switzy by Emma Cline

Join Edgartown Books at The Carnegie for a discussion of Emma Cline’s just-released novel, Switzy. Cline, the bestselling author of The Girls and The Guest, turns her attention to an aging retired executive making a final journey to Zurich as his grasp on memory and the present begins to slip away.

Darkly funny and deeply moving, Switzy explores memory, mortality and what remains when the accomplishments and assumptions that have defined a life begin to disappear. The novel was longlisted for the 2026 Booker Prize.
