Well, Jackson, MS has had quite the literary week!! Kathryn Stockett, Jackson native and author of The Help, was in town and did two great programs that were standing room only. Tuesday night, she was at Millsaps College for the Arts & Lecture Series along with Todd Sanders, author of Jackson’s North State Street, where they both talked about Jackson history through culture, lifestyle and architecture. Then on Wednesday morning Kathryn stopped at the Eudora Welty Library for the Applause Series hosted by the library and the Jackson Friends of the Library. Lemuria was on site at both events selling books and showing support for two authors that are great friends of the bookstore. If you can tell anything by the decibel level of the crowd before, during Q&A and after both events, a fantastic time was had by everyone!!
WLBT stopped by the Library and interviewed Kathryn so I thought I would link it here for you….
