Join us in launching Jen Thompson’s debut memoir, Wild Pivot: Notes from a Political Life Rewritten on Saturday, October 3rd at 4:00 PM. For fans of Educated and You Could Make This Place Beautiful, a memoir of powerful vignettes about a rock-star Republican strategist who gives up a life in politics after a near-death accident spurs her into a search for deeper meaning.

“An absorbing, deeply personal memoir of personal and political transformation.”
—Kirkus Reviews
 
“Wild Pivot is a compelling memoir about what happens when success no longer feels like success.  It’s a story about choosing truth over approval and discovering that sometimes the most courageous pivot is the one that leads back to yourself.  It stands as a powerful testament to the courage required to rewrite your story—no matter the price.  Readers who enjoy insightful, deeply human memoirs will find this one hard to put down.”
— SA Examiner

“Wild Pivot is a brave memoir about the cost of telling the truth. Jen Thompson writes with moral clarity, wisdom and wit about walking away from a powerful political identity and discovering how integrity often arrives disguised as disruption.”  ​
​—Parker J. Palmer (author of Healing the Heart of Democracy and A Hidden Wholeness)
