As a part of Kentucky Humanities' statewide literacy initiative, each year, they select a book by a Kentucky author to present to the public. This year, the library's Adult Readers' Book Club will join in this statewide reading and discussion of the book, Dear Ann, by award winning author Bobbie Ann Mason.
KY Humanities and MCPL are providing the books for this special event which are available free to those who wish to participate. The following month, on October 27th, the library will host a guest speaker for the event: Author Jayne Moore Waldrop will lead our book discussion. Jayne is the author of several books of her own: The most recent, Drowned Town, was named Foreword Review's 2022 Silver winner of the INDIES Book of the Year in General Fiction.
Light refreshments will be served and a door prize featuring Kentucky products will be offered to those who attend.
Copies of Dear Ann will be available for pickup beginning Tuesday, September 27th.
This event has been made possible by the cultural insight and generous support of Kentucky Humanities, Kentucky Reads, and National Endowment for the Humanities.
