Mary Lea will be in conversation with @liandolan. And if you need a cocktail recommendation, here's @fiatgal's recipe for a Somehow Saints themed drink: Stigmata ala AGM

2 servings, or 4 very tiny ones

In honor of @maryleacarroll's newest book, #somehowsaints

2 oz vodka

1 oz ginger liqueur (such a smooth flavor)

1 oz grenadine syrup (Yes Cocktail Co.)

1 oz Luxardo Cherry (Sangue Morlacco/black blood)*

.50 oz juice of yuzu (citrus that tastes like a cross between a clementine and a meyer lemon)

3 large basil leaves

A splash of sparkling wine

Muddle 3 basil leaves with vodka. Strain into shaker with the rest of the ingredients, shake with ice cubes until ice-cold, perhaps 15 seconds or so. Pour into a sexy cocktail glass, top off with sparkling wine. Enjoy!

*Named by poet Gabriele D’Annunzio in 1919.

Part of one’s despair, of course, is that the world cares nothing for the little shocks endured by the sensitive stickler.
