two literary events in brevard, NC

It’s weeks like this I feel so very lucky to live where I do—in a town which values books, the natural world, and important voices.

Tonight: Historical Fiction Book Club at Highland Books in downtown Brevard, North Carolina — Kristin Hannah’s The Women (plus yummy treats at Smokey Sunrise, next door!)

Thursday at 7:00 pm: MacArthur Fellow J. Drew Lanham at Brevard College’s Porter Center, as the Spring 2024 J.R. McDowell speaker. Lanham is a professor, wildlife biologist, and poet, too, but I first fell in love with his work through The Home Place: Memoirs of a Colored Man’s Love Affair with Nature.

Both events are FREE! Buy your discounted books from Highland Books, and get your ticket for tomorrow at the Transylvania County Public Library.
