SUMMARY:Bestselling author Sarah Kendzior talks about The Last American Road Trip: A Memoir at NewSouth Bookstore
DESCRIPTION:Sarah Kendzior is our special guest at The NewSouth Bookstore on Tuesday\, May 6 at 5:30pm. She will be in conversation with Lee Farrow about her amazing new book\, The Last American Road Trip. The book\, which chronicles a series of road trips the political journalist took with her family\, navigates a changing America in a work that is part memoir\, part travelogue\, and part work of history. The Last American Road Trip is one mother’s promise to her children that their country will be there for them in the future — even though at times she struggles to believe it herself. Author Sebastian Junger says\, “Kendzior is an absolutely terrific writer — a preeminent voice of her generation — and her love for this troubled country flows like a kind of lifeblood through her work.” Join us for what promises to be a most interesting book program on May 6.
