GRACE PERIOD is Elisabeth Nonas’ fourth published novel. She has written several screenplays as well as short stories, magazine articles, and essays. Graphic novelist Alison Bechdel (FUN HOME, DYKES TO WATCH OUT FOR) said about GRACE PERIOD: "...when your younger partner dies on her way to your retirement party...might not sound like the setup for an extremely funny novel, but trust me, in Elisabeth Nonas’ skilled hands, it is. I didn’t want this book to end... I just hope Nonas will write a sequel." Nonas is currently working on the sequel.
