Adult Book Discussion

"The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek"

All are welcome to join the discussion on Kim Michele Richardson's, "The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek". Light refreshments will be served.

About "The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek" by Kim Michele Richardson

A young outcast braves the hardships of Kentucky's Great Depression and brings truly magical objects to her people: books. Inspired by the brave women of the Pack Horse Library Project!

Cussy Mary Carter is the last of her kind, her skin the colour of a blue damselfly in these dusty hills. But that doesn't mean she's got nothing to offer. As a member of the Pack Horse Library Project, Cussy delivers books to the hillfolk of Troublesome Creek, hoping to spread learning in these desperate times. But not everyone is so keen on Cussy's family or the Library Project, and the hardscrabble Kentuckians are quick to blame a Blue for any trouble in their small town.
