Let us continue to deliver authors to your living room. The next author in the Southern Edition series is Edward Farmer. He will be talking with us about his new book PALE and answering your questions. 

"Edward Farmer's powerful debut, Pale, lures you in with its atmospheric prose, grabbing hold gently and then slowly tightening its emotional grip with each page. His main character, Bernice, must navigate Mississippi plantation life circa 1966 with its deeply embedded racism and well-established patriarchy, as well as the complex tensions between both Mr. and Mrs. Kerns and their servants. It's a beautifully wrought novel, with each character sensitively drawn, exposing the lasting effects of trauma. Farmer is a writer to watch!" -John Copenhaver, author of the Macavity Award-winning Dodging and Burning

Join us online for the next "Reader Meet Writer, Southern Edition" event featuring bestselling author Lisa Wingate presenting her new novel, THE BOOK OF LOST AND FRIENDS, with special guest Diane Plauche, (formerly of the Historic New Orleans Collection).

“Lisa Wingate takes an almost unthinkable chapter in our nation’s history and weaves a tale of enduring power.” —Paula McLain
