Third Annual Southern Reading Challenge
Even in a year when I'm keeping my distance from reading challenges, I'll be a happy participant in Maggie's Southern Reading Challenge.
Three Southern novels between May 15 and August 15. Weekly contests and drawings; I'll be the one most interested in noting the state of any mules that meander through the pages from the possibilities below:
The Hamlet. William Faulkner
Losing Battles. Eudora Welty
City of Refuge. Tom Piazza
Serena. Ron Rash
The Scarlet Thread. Doris Betts
Off For the Sweet Hereafter. T. R. Pearson
The Wettest County in the World. Matt Bondurant
The New Valley. Josh Weil
