SUMMARY:Sunday\, May 4\, at 3pm at The NewSouth Bookstore: Gary Minder joins us to celebrate the release of his new novel\, The Education of Asa Paxton
DESCRIPTION:The advanced praise for Gary Minder’s novel is glowing. Our excellent friend\, author Frye Gaillard\, says\, “Gary Minder is a fine storyteller and sensitive student of the human condition. This is as powerful a debut novel as you are likely to read\, written with a deep sense of character and place.” Intrigued\, we’ve invited Minder to The NewSouth Bookstore for a talk about The Education of Asa Paxton. The book offers a historic view of rural life in the South through the eyes of young adults. Asa emerges at seventeen a handsome young man\, a pariah still because of the company his family keeps. Secrets soon collide with the force of a tornado\, threatening to tear families apart and send the innocent to prison — or worse. We can’t wait to hear how the story unfolds. Join us for this fun event with Gary Minder on Sunday\, May 4\, at 3pm.
