Just wanted to remind everyone that the fourth event of the Spring
2008 CAROLINA NOVELISTS SERIES cosponsored by the Institute for
Southern Studies and the Friends of the Richland County Public Library
is on Monday, March 31 at 6 PM.
Our guest on Monday is DOROTHY ALLISON, the acclaimed author of TRASH,
BASTARD OUT OF CAROLINA, and CAVEDWELLER.
Her accolades include, among others, the Robert Penn Warren Award and an ALA Award for
Lesbian and Gay Writing, and she has been a finalist for the National
Book Award and the Lillian Smith Award. BASTARD OUT OF CAROLINA and
CAVEDWELLER have been made into films.
Allison is also a poet.
This event is free and open to the public and will take place in the
Bostick Auditorium of the Richland County Public Library. Following
the author’s remarks, there will be a book-signing and reception. The
Happy Bookseller will have books available for sale at the reading.
