DESCRIPTION:This talk should interest everyone. Seriously. Join us to listen to and learn from MSNBC legal analyst Barbara McQuade\, author of Attack from Within: How Disinformation Is Sabotaging America\, now in paperback.

SUMMARY:Saturday\, June 21 at 3pm at The NewSouth Bookstore: Ruth Franklin talks about "The Many Lives of Anne Frank"
DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to welcome Ruth Franklin to The NewSouth Bookstore on Saturday\, June 21 at 3pm. She will talk about her new biography\, The Many Lives of Anne Frank. In this work Franklin explores the transformation of Anne Frank from ordinary teenager to icon\, shedding new light on the young woman whose diary of her years in hiding\, now translated into more than seventy languages\, is the most widely read work of literature to arise from the Holocaust. Comprehensively researched but experimental in spirit\, this book chronicles and interprets Anne’s life as a Jew in Amsterdam during World War II while also telling the story of the diary—its multiple drafts\, its discovery\, its reception\, and its message for today’s world. It’s an amazing book. And we have every expectation that Franklin’s presentation about her subject will be every bit as fine.

SUMMARY:Thursday\, June 5\, 5:30pm at The NewSouth Bookstore: Dr. Barry Cole joins us for a talk about One Hundred Pearls: A Novel
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Barry Cole teaches African American literature at the University of Alabama. His love of the subject matter sparked him to write his first historical novel\, entitled One Hundred Pearls: A Novel. The story centers on the life of Sadie\, who lived to be one hundred. Stolen from her African home in Gambia\, she survived abduction and the experience of the Middle Passage to live on cotton and rice plantations before being removed to Tuscaloosa’s Tannehill Furnaces. Cole tells us that the Tannehill Slave Cemetery is essentially a mass grave where scores of human beings were buried under unchiseled stones gleaned from the nearby furnace quarry. Their names are mostly lost to history. One Hundred Pearls: A Novel tells one woman’s story. The book cannot right history\, but it gives poetic life to it. Come meet Barry Cole and enjoy this talk about his work. At The NewSouth Bookstore on Thursday\, June 5\, at 5:30pm.

SUMMARY:Tuesday\, May 13\, at 5:30pm at The NewSouth Bookstore: Miranda Spivack joins us for talk about Backroom Deals in Our Backyards
DESCRIPTION:Miranda S. Spivack\, an award-winning journalist\, is our special guest on Tuesday\, May 13 at 5:30pm\, in conversation with social justice advocate Patricia Todd\, a former Alabama legislator. Spivack’s new book\, Backroom Deals in Our Backyards\, is a groundbreaking look at how ordinary people are fighting back against their local and state governments to keep their communities safe. Spivack’s revealing take on a hidden dimension of American politics will outrage and educate anyone who cares about the forces shaping their own communities. Says Linda Greenhouse at Yale University\, “Spivack not only demonstrates how government secrecy threatens democracy. She shows us how ordinary people can fight to make local government more transparent. This eye–opening and meticulously reported book is both a call to action and a road map for success.” Come be enlightened and inspired.

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.
