Virtual book talk with author Dr. Anthony Carlisle
The Souls of Clayhatchee: A Southern Tale
Thursday, February 24 from 12:45-1:45 PM.
The Souls of Clayhatchee: A Southern Tale is a novel of many layers--family ties, the ghosts of racism that linger still, a mysterious murder, and also of forgiveness-forgiveness of not a person, but rather a place. And also the timeless question of--is it really possible for one to “go home again,” even if it’s a place he’s never been?
