Excavations - A Novel

USA TODAY BESTSELLER - BEST SUMMER READS OF 2023: The New York Post - Oprah Book Club - Oprah Daily - USA Today - Good Housekeeping - Brit + Co - The Good Trade - Parade - Zibby Mag - O Quaterly "Funny, smart and deeply delicious." --Amy Poehler "Witty and acerbic, Myers'' debut is humorous and sharply written, as if Aubrey Plaza''s April Ludgate from Parks and Recreation decided to write a sun-drenched novel about feminism, friendship, and archeology." -- Booklist Over a summer in sun-drenched Greece, four incompatible women digging into the past may just find the answers to their futures. An "academic satire with a feminist bent... Fresh, funny, intelligent, and deeply satisfying."-- Kirkus (Starred Review) On a remote archeological site in Greece, the mythic home of the first Olympics, four women discover an unusual artifact. It''s a piece of history that definitely shouldn''t exist. And for the head archaeologist in charge, a relic himself, it means something''s gone horribly wrong. Elise, Kara, Z and Patty all find themselves digging here together, but they couldn''t be farther apart. Kara''s a polished conservator calling off her wedding. Patty and her bowl cut are desperate for love. Millennial Z just got dumped and fired yet again. And Elise, their star excavator, is a lone wolf about to go rogue. To figure out what they''re really digging for, and to topple the man who wants to hide their history, these dirt-crusted colleagues have to become what they''ve avoided for years--friends. If they put their own messes aside for one summer, they might just make the discovery of a lifetime.
