Books by Janet Skeslien Charles

Janet Skeslien Charles is an American author who lived in Paris for many years and worked at the American Library of Paris — the same library at the center of this novel. Her debut novel Moonlight in Odessa was published in 2009. The Paris Library, her second novel, grew from her time at the library and her discovery of its wartime history. She has an MFA in creative writing from the University of Montana. Her work sits at the intersection of historical research and intimate character study.
