Patricia Foster at The NewSouth Bookstore!
April 11 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
We welcome Patricia Foster on Thursday, April 11 at 5:30pm. In Written in the Sky: Lessons of a Southern Daughter, Foster presents a double portrait of place and family, a book of deeply personal essays that interrogate the legacy of racial tensions in the South, the constriction of caste and gender, and the ways race, class, and white privilege are entwined in her family story. Foster is gaining well-deserved recognition for her talents as a writer with this new book. Come meet her and enjoy her talk about it.
