Join debut novelist and Truro resident Jackie Fein-Zachary for a look at her adventure of becoming a vintner and later becoming a writer. 

Her novel Harvest Dreams steps into the lush Napa Valley of 1982 and the unforgettable journey of characters Kate Bauer and Sydney Barrett as they navigate love, loss, and the bountiful harvest of life.

A Virginia native, Jacqueline Fein-Zachary is most proud of her women’s rights activism in Connecticut and her professional life as a French and Spanish teacher. When she met the love of her life, Valerie, they traveled together to France, Italy, England, Israel, Greece, and South Africa. Most wonderful of all, together they helped win same-sex marriage rights in Massachusetts. Jackie and Valerie live in Boston and on Cape Cod. Jackie persists as a vegan foodie and activist, helping to save the planet and promote a saner, kinder world
