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.
Mary Dearborn is our guest at the bookstore on Sunday, April 21 at 3pm for a talk about her major new release, Carson McCullers: A Life. The first biography of McCullers in more than twenty years, Dearborn takes advantage in her writing of a cache of newly available journals and letters to craft an admiring but clear-eyed appraisal of McCullers’s art and enigmatic life. Her book is rich in insights. So too will be her talk. Mark your calendars to be with us for this special event.
