BookTalk Will Concern âFair And Tender Ladiesâ
SOUTHBURY â The next BookTalk program at Southbury Public Library will concern Fair and Tender Ladies, by Lee Smith.
With Fair and Tender Ladies, the acclaimed author of Oral History returns to familiar Appalachian ground and recounts the life of her memorable heroine, Ivy Rowe, through letters spanning the years from girlhood to older age. Imbued with the importance of place and family, Fair and Tender Ladies vividly portrays the strength, endurance and creative soul of Virginiaâs mountain-bred people.
Joyce Ware, a published author, will lead the discussion on Monday, January 8, at 2 pm. Contact organizers Hilja Wescott, 264-1716, or Lois Wolsch, 262-6123, for details.
