An Evening with Glenn Taylor

Thu, 06/24/2010 - 7:00pm

Join us for an evening with this powerful new voice from the South, Glenn Taylor, whose previous book, The Ballad of Trenchmouth Taggart was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award. Jayne Anne Phillips says of Taylor’s new book, The Marrowbone Marble Company "Glenn Taylor’s plain spoken eloquence on labor, race, and war recalls the voices in Studs Terkel’s inspired Working. The Marrowbone Marble Company, a novel of stirring clarity and power, speaks unforgettably from a half century ago to issues still unresolved in American life. Taylor has composed a hymn to the human heart." Admission is FREE. (Photo credit: Margaret Hanshaw Taylor)
