The NewSouth Bookstore actively hosts bookstore and off-site literary programs — book talks and readings — along with a variety of other programs both entertaining and educational. These include presentations by historians, readings of plays, music events, and community service programs. We enjoy such gatherings quite a lot. Our bookstore events calendar is always evolving, so please regularly check back here for updates to our calendar (and/or follow us on social media, where all such activities are also posted). We welcome your event suggestions and thank you for your support.
Brooke Champagne and Jason McCall read from new work at The NewSouth Bookstore
December 12 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
A lovely evening awaits us with readings from new work by Brooke Champagne and Jason McCall, scheduled on Thursday, December 12 at 5:30pm. Champagne’s newest book, Nola Face, is a collection of essays that explore topics of family, identity, memory, and the complicated ways in which we relate to each other. McCall’s Razed by TV Sets, also a book of essays, plumbs the ways in which depictions of race and masculinity have shaped how the author sees himself and others. Both smart writers, Champagne and McCall find meaning in the everyday — in our activities, our culture, our bonds.
