The Regional Readers book group meets Tuesday, June 29 in the JSF Conference Room. Coffee and conversation at 2:00 pm; book discussion at 2:30 pm. We will wear masks and practice social distancing.
The June selection is A Jesse Stuart Reader, a collection of works by Jesse Stuart. Enter the world of Jesse Stuart. The scene is eastern Kentucky, the hills, the mountains, the forests, the rivers, a land of primitive beauty. Meet the people of this land. They are determined pioneers, bold frontiersmen, feuding clansmen, brave settlers, and all of them are fierce fighters. And they are tender too. They are Jesse Stuart’s people, the key to his world. The collection includes 18 short stories; excerpts from God’s Oddling, The Thread That Runs So True, and The Year of My Rebirth; 26 poems; a Commentary and Study Questions by Ella DeMers; and a Foreword by Max Bogart.
The book group is open to all and new members are always welcome. We encourage suggestions for the 2021 reading list.
