SUMMARY:Megan Abbott in conversation with Jack Pendarvis for El Dorado Drive
DESCRIPTION:About the book \n\n\n\n\nAll I want is to be innocent again. But that’s not how it works. Especially not after the Wheel. \nThe three Bishop sisters grew up in privilege in the moneyed suburbs of Detroit. But as the auto industry declined\, so did their fortunes. Harper\, the youngest\, is barely making ends meet when her beloved\, charismatic sister Pam—currently in the middle of a contentious battle with her ex-husband—and her eldest sister\, Debra\, approach her about joining an exciting new club. \nThe Wheel offers women like themselves—middle-aged and of declining means—a way to make their own money\, independent of husbands or families. Quickly\, however\, the Wheel’s success\, and their own addiction to it\, leads to greater and greater risks—and a crime so shocking it threatens to bring everything down with it. \n\n\n\n\nMegan Abbott turns her keen eye toward women and money in El Dorado Drive\, a riveting story about power\, vulnerability\, and how desperation draws out our most destructive impulses \n\n\n\n\nAbout the author \nMegan Abbott is the Edgar award-winning author of eleven crime novels\, including You Will Know Me\, Give Me Your Hand and the New York Times bestseller The Turnout\, the winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize. She received her Ph.D. in English and American literature from New York University and her writing has appeared in the New York Times\, the Guardian\, the Paris Review and the Wall Street Journal. Dare Me\, the series she adapted from her own novel\, now streaming on Netflix. Her latest novel\, Beware the Woman\, is now in paperback. \nAbout the conversation partner \nJack Pendarvis has written seven books. He won two Emmys for his work on the television show Adventure Time. He lives in Oxford\, MS.

SUMMARY:Eli Cranor in conversation with John T Edge for Mississippi Blue 42
DESCRIPTION:About the book \n\n\n\n\nSpecial Agent Rae Johnson grew up on football fields alongside her father\, a national-championship-winning coach. Which is exactly why\, fresh out of Quantico\, she’s sent down to Compson\, Mississippi\, to investigate the illicit money flowing into a bustling football program in the heart of the Delta. But two days into the assignment things take a dire turn when UCM’s star quarterback is flung from the roof of a college bar\, lands on a bag of money\, and dies. \nHoping to turn a routine fraud case into a career-defining bust\, Rae ingratiates herself with the fans\, coaches\, players\, and politicians who make up the university’s complex social hierarchy. With rumors of corruption rustling through the kudzu vines\, Rae soon realizes there’s more to the game than what she’d learned as a child. And in order to win\, she’ll have to put all her father’s lessons to the ultimate test. \n\n\n\n\nAbout the author \n\n\n\n\nSpecial Agent Rae Johnson grew up on football fields alongside her father\, a national-championship-winning coach.

SUMMARY:Robert Busby in conversation with Ace Atkins for Bodock
DESCRIPTION:About the book \nIn 1994\, the real Mid-South Ice Storm strikes the fictitious town of Bodock in Claygardner County\,Mississippi. In the wake of the storm\, what is left unbroken\, and what broken things can be rebuilt? Hailed by Maurice Carlos Ruffin as “leaving no feeling untouched\,” Robert Busby’s debut balances grit with heart\, violence with depth\, and tragedy with humor. Two siblings survey the damage to their family’s orchard after the storm while their rich nephew circles in the hopes of buying up the property. A slacker divorcee drives his ex-father-in-law to his lung transplant surgery. A cop tries to piece his broken family back together in the wake of the loss of his son. In 1816\, a farmer’s wife plots with an enslaved woman to stop her husband from committing a terrible act. And in a town that is not quite Bodock\, a population of ghosts reckon with their unsettled pasts. In the spirit of Brad Watson’s Last Days of the Dog-Men\, Bodock traverses time and dimensions to surface the struggles of the everyday. \n\n\n\n\nAbout the author \nRobert Busby grew up in the hill country of North Mississippi and has worked as a bandsaw operator\, bookseller\, copywriter\, driving school instructor\, powder coater\, prep cook\, produce clerk\, teacher\, and satellite television technician. A graduate of the University of Mississippi\, he got his MFA in Fiction from Florida International University\, and his stories have appeared in Arkansas Review\, Cold Mountain Review\, Footnote\, Mississippi Noir\, PANK\, Pleiades\, Sou’wester\, Surreal South\, and others. Currently\, he writes\, runs\, and raises two humans with his wife in Memphis\, TN. \n\n\n\n\nAbout the conversation partner \nAce Atkins is an award-winning\, New York Times bestselling author of more than thirty novels and numerous short stories. A former college football player and newspaper reporter\, he’s a recent recipient of the Richard Wright Award for excellence in Southern Literature and a member of the Alabama Writers Hall of Fame. He lives with his wife Angela and two children in Oxford\, Mississippi.

SUMMARY:Lauren Rhoades in conversation with Mary Miller for Split the Baby
DESCRIPTION:About the book \nIn honest and captivating prose\, Split the Baby chronicles the toll of divorce and family rupture from the perspective of a child who was nearly torn in two. Lauren Rhoades retells her experience of growing up caught between two homes run by equally strong women: a fervently Catholic stepmother and a deeply sensitive Jewish mother. Pulled toward radically distinct family cultures with rich but conflicting religious traditions\, the young girl struggles to reconcile her stepmother’s possessive charm with her mother’s fierce and vulnerable love. \nWorking with a trove of salvaged documents—including psychological evaluations\, legal records\, and personal family diaries—Rhoades searches for answers to questions of identity\, spirituality\, and the relationships that most deeply shape us. Ultimately\, this debut memoir-in-pieces is a thoughtful story of learning to become whole again. \n\n\n\n\nAbout the author \nLauren Rhoades is a writer\, editor\, and grantmaker living in Jackson\, Mississippi. Originally from Denver\, Colorado\, Lauren has served with AmeriCorps\, started Mississippi’s first fermentation company\, and helmed the Eudora Welty House & Garden. She is now director of grants at the Mississippi Arts Commission and a host of MPB’s The Mississippi Arts Hour. In 2022\, Lauren founded Rooted Magazine\, an online publication dedicated to telling unfiltered stories about what it means to call Mississippi home. She holds an MFA in creative writing from the Mississippi University for Women. Split the Baby is her first book. \n  \n\n\n\n\nAbout the conversation partner \nMary Miller is the author of two novels\, Biloxi and The Last Days of California\, as well as two short story collections\, Always Happy Hour and Big World. Her fiction has appeared in The Paris Review\, the Oxford American\, McSweeney’s Quarterly\, Norton’s Seagull Book of Stories\, and Pushcart Prize XLIV\, among others.

SUMMARY:BOOK LAUNCH Michael Farris Smith in conversation with John T Edge for Lay Your Armor Down
DESCRIPTION:A dark Southern tale of desperate souls who’ve wound up on the road of poor choices \nMichael Farris Smith in conversation with John T Edge for the launch of Lay Your Armor Down\, a “prophetic\, propulsive tale” of a messianic child with untold powers\, and those out hunting her for their own reward\, told in Smith’s trademark mournful\, spirit-gnawing prose. \nAbout the book \n“Michael Farris Smith possesses a conductor’s mastery and a lead singer’s swagger\, and Lay Your Armor Down demands that you pay attention.” – Wright Thompson \nAn old woman\, riddled with dementia\, walks off into\nthe woods in the middle of the night. A light in the\nwood draws her to a campfire with two strange\,\ndangerous men\, one young and one old\, who are\nthere plotting a crime of as-yet-indeterminate\npurpose. The two men have a job to do. They are\nhunting something precious but have only been told:\nyou’ll know it when you see it. When they arrive at\nthe place\, an abandoned church cellar in the\nburned-out countryside\, they find an answer they never could have predicted. Now\, the job feels dubious\, one that’ll surely bring them to ruin. Yet if they’re to go against orders\, no step can be undone\, and nothing can be taken back. \nIn spare\, Beckett-like prose\, Lay Your Armor Down reduces the epic to its most elemental. It charts the course of several broken people\, all outrunning danger’s dark fingers\, and all brought together for one last chance at redemption. \nAbout the author \nMichael Farris Smith is an award-winning writer whose novels have appeared on Best of the Year lists with Esquire\, NPR\, Southern Living\, Garden & Gun\, Oprah Magazine\, Book Riot\, and numerous other outlets\, and have been named Indie Next\, Barnes & Noble Discover\, and Amazon Best of the Month selections. As a screenwriter\, he scripted the feature-film adaptations of his novels Desperation Road and The Fighter\, titled for the screen as Rumble Through the Dark. With his band MFS & The Smokes\, Smith wrote and released the record Lostville\, which was produced by Grammy nominee Jimbo Mathus. He lives in Oxford\, Mississippi\, with his wife and daughters. \nAbout the conversation partner \nJohn T Edge is the author of The PotLikker Papers: A Food History of the Modern South\, named a best book of 2017 by NPR\, Publisher‘s Weekly\, and a host of others. For twenty-two years\, he served as a columnist for the Oxford American\, and for three years he wrote the United Tastes column for the New York Times.

SUMMARY:Martha Park in conversation with John T Edge for World Without End
DESCRIPTION:In these penetrating and beautifully wrought essays\, Martha Park employs her many identities—artist\, naturalist\, southerner\, mother\, preacher’s daughter astray—to investigate profound questions about faith and the fate of our planet. It is rare to find a voice like this: at once vulnerable and rigorous\, skeptical and compassionate\, commanding and humble in the presence of mystery.” – Lisa Wells\, author of Believers: Making a Life at the End of the World \nWhen Martha Park’s father announces he is retiring from the ministry after forty-two years\, she moves home to Memphis to attend his United Methodist church for his last year in the pulpit. She hopes to encounter a more certain sense of herself as secular or religious. Instead\, she becomes increasingly compelled by her uncertainty\, and grows curious whether doubt itself could be a kind of faith that more closely echoes a world marked by loss\, beauty\, and constant change. \n\n\n\n\nIn illustrated essays\, World Without End: Essays on Apocalypse and After explores the intersections of faith\, motherhood\, and the climate crisis across the South. From man-made wetlands in Arkansas to conservation cemeteries in South Carolina\, from a full-scale replica of Noah’s Ark in Kentucky to the reenactment of the Scopes Monkey Trial\, Park chronicles the ways the faith in which she was raised now seems like an exception to the rule\, exploring this divide with compassion and empathy. For fans of Margaret Renkl and Lisa Wells\, World Without End considers the ways religion shapes how we understand and interact with the world—and how faith can compel us all to work to save the places we love. \nAbout the author \nMartha Park is a writer and illustrator from Memphis\, Tennessee. She received an MFA from the Jackson Center for Creative Writing at Hollins University\, and was the Spring 2016 Philip Roth Writer-in-Residence at Bucknell University’s Stadler Center for Poetry.

SUMMARY:BOOK LAUNCH Jaz Brisack in conversation with Joe Atkins for Get on the Job and Organize
DESCRIPTION:A compelling\, inspirational narrative of many recent unionization efforts\, from the leader of the Starbucks and Tesla union movements \nAuthor and activist Jaz Brisack for Get On the Job and Organize\, which takes readers inside the fast-paced\, high-stakes campaigns to unionize companies ranging from Nissan to Starbucks to Tesla. \n\n\n\n\nAbout the book \n\n\n\n\n“Here’s the light to illuminate these dark times — an account of how workers take on corporate power and win. Even more inspiring\, it’s led by Gen Z. Essential reading for anyone who cares about tackling economic inequality and saving democracy.” \n—Robert Reich\, former US Secretary of Labor and author of Aftershock and Saving Capitalism \nGet on the Job and Organize is a compelling\, inspirational narrative of the Starbucks and Tesla unionization efforts\, telling the broader story of the new\, nationwide labor movement unfolding in our era of political and social unrest. As one of the exciting new faces of the American Labor Movement\, Jaz Brisack argues that while workers often organize when their place of work is toxic\, it’s equally important to organize when you love your job. \n\n\n\n\nWith an accessible voice and profound insight\, Brisack puts everything into the context of America’s long tradition of labor organizing and shows us how we too can organize our workplaces\, from how to educate yourself and your colleagues\, to what backlash can be expected and how to fight it\, to what victory looks like even if the union doesn’t necessarily “win.” \nAbout the author \nJaz Brisack is a union organizer and cofounder of the Inside Organizer School\, which trains workers to unionize. After spending one year at Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar\, they got a job as a barista at the Elmwood Starbucks in Buffalo\, New York\, becoming a founding member of Starbucks Workers United and helping organize the first unionized Starbucks in the United States. As the organizing director for Workers United Upstate New York & Vermont\, they also worked with organizing committees at companies ranging from Ben & Jerry’s to Tesla.

SUMMARY:Callie Collins for Walk Softly on This Heart of Mine
DESCRIPTION:About the book\n“Collins debuts with a finely tuned tale of artistic ambition and cultural shifts in\nthe 1970s Texas music scene…Brilliantly conveys the nitty-gritty details of a\nworking musician’s day-to-day. Music lovers will especially dig this.”\n–Kirkus Reviews \nAgainst the vibrant\, bluesy backdrop of 1970s Austin\, Texas\, this shimmering\ndebut follows the collision between hicks and hipsters that ultimately results in\ntragedy. \nAustin\, Texas is a town in the throes of social upheaval and the Rush Creek\nSaloon\, five miles on its outskirts\, is a bar without a crowd. Until a strange new\nhouse band transforms it from moribund honky-tonk to thriving blues bar. But are the throngs of people and the rowdy music worth the chaos that comes with them?\nWalk Softly on This Heart of Mine is told through three perspectives\, each of whom is in some ways responsible for the rebirth of Rush Creek and for the violence that follows in the afterbirth. Doug Moser\, a country-and-blues guitarist from San Antonio\, is seizing his long-awaited chance at fame but cannot turn away from the easy booze and drugs that come with the life. Deanna Teague owns Rush Creek. Her marriage is rocky and so is her sense of herself\, but she sees a crack of light if she can just hold it all together. And Steven Francis is a boy who loves too fiercely. He grapples with his sexuality\, his God\, and his place in a town where he badly wants to belong. In her heartfelt\, electrifying rockabilly ode to a place in a permanent state of becoming\, Collins has\ncaptured the roughhousing mood and paradoxical longings of the American psyche. The embrace of both inertia and danger\, the longing for freedom and anarchy even as we crave a place to belong. Walk Softly on This Heart of Mine is a time capsule stuffed with heat and booze\, electric guitar riffs and big\, empty spaces. It’s about the cost of fame—the real price of attention—and what it can do to a person\, to a community\, to a whole damn town. \nAbout the author\nCallie Collins is a queer writer and editor from Texas. She has an MFA from the University of Michigan\, where she was also a 2018-2019 Zell Postgraduate Fellow. She held a Fiction Fellowship at the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown\, Massachusetts from 2019-2020. She lives in Austin.

SUMMARY:Adam Gussow for My Family and I
DESCRIPTION:Author and University of Mississippi professor Adam Gussow for My Family and I\, an inspiring memoir about the author’s lifelong quest for racial reconciliation\, the love that sustains his interracial family in contemporary Mississippi\, and the “Yes we can!” hope for American renewal that fades after the deaths of Trayvon Martin\, Michael Brown\, and the despair-driven rise of Black Lives Matter. \nAbout the book\nWhat has happened to the dream of beloved community embraced by Martin Luther King\, Jr. and the civil rights movement of the early 1960s—the vision of a just\, humane\, and colorblind America\, a nation of “black and white together” animated by the spirit of mutual respect and strengthened by the bonds of brotherly love? As Adam Gussow shows in this urgently needed new book\, the dream\, although pressured on every front\, remains alive. \nAt the heart of My Family and I is Gussow’s determination\, in King’s terms\, to live out the true meaning of America’s creed—a quest for transracial brotherhood that takes him from a blues partnership forged on the streets of 1980s Harlem through graduate training at Princeton and\, decades later\, a transformative course on the blues literary tradition that he shares with inmates at Mississippi’s notorious Parchman Farm. \nAnchoring Gussow’s quest is a story of enduring love: a playful\, soulful interracial romance between the newly hired professor at Ole Miss and his soon-to-be-wife Sherrie that blossoms with the birth of a musically gifted son\, Shaun. As America explodes with protest and riots in the summer of 2020 after the death of George Floyd\, as social justice fundamentalists insist on stigmatizing whiteness and hardening the color line rather than healing the divisions that plague us\, Gussow is forced to fight for what he loves—not just the sanctity of his family circle\, but King’s dream of beloved community. \nMy Family and I gifts the reader with hope for a future beyond America’s seemingly insoluble racial dilemmas. \nAbout the author\nAdam Gussow is a professor of English and Southern Studies at the University of Mississippi and a blues harmonica player and teacher. His many books on the blues include Seems Like Murder Here: Southern Violence and the Blues Tradition and Beyond the Crossroads: The Devil and the Blues Tradition. Gussow’s longtime musical partnership with Sterling “Mr Satan” Magee was the subject of an award-winning documentary\, Satan & Adam (2018)\, which screened on Netflix for several years.

SUMMARY:THACKER MOUNTAIN RADIO HOUR: Callan Wink for Beartooth
DESCRIPTION:Callan Wink for Beartooth\, a bracing\, masterful novel about survival\, revenge\, and the bond between brothers \nAbout the book \n“One of the best and fiercest heist stories since A Simple Plan . . . Beartooth is unstoppable\, the literary treasure you’ve been looking for.”–Junot Diaz \nTwo brothers in dire straits\, living on the edge of Yellowstone\, agree to a desperate act of survival in this taut\, propulsive novel reminiscent of the works of Peter Heller and Donald Ray Pollock. \nIn an aging\, timber house hand-built into the Absaroka-Beartooth mountains\, two brothers are struggling to keep up with their debts. They live off the grid\, on the fringe of Yellowstone\, surviving off the wild after the death of their father. Thad\, the elder\, is more capable of engaging with things like the truck registration\, or the medical bills they can’t afford from their father’s fatal illness\, or the tax lien on the cabin their grandfather built\, while Hazen is . . . different\, more instinctual\, deeply in tune with the natural world. Desperate for money\, they are approached by a shadowy out-of-towner with a dangerous proposition that will change both of their lives forever. \nBeartooth is a fast-paced tale with moments of surprising poignancy set in the grandeur of the American West. Evoking the timeless voices of American pastoral storytelling\, this is a bracing\, masterful novel about survival\, revenge\, and the bond between brothers. \nAbout the author \nCallan Wink has been awarded fellowships by the National Endowment for the Arts and Stanford University\, where he was a Wallace Stegner Fellow. His stories and essays have been published in the New Yorker\, Granta\, Playboy\, Men’s Journal\, and The Best American Short Stories. He is the author of a novel\, August\, and a collection of short stories\, Dog Run Moon. He lives in Livingston\, Montana\, where he is a fly-fishing guide on the Yellowstone River.

SUMMARY:Bennett Parten for Somewhere Toward Freedom
DESCRIPTION:A brilliant reframing of a seminal moment in Civil War history \nAuthor and historian Bennett Parten in conversation with Robert Colby for Somewhere Toward Freedom\, a groundbreaking account of Sherman’s March to the Sea – told for the first time from the perspective of the tens of thousands of enslaved people who fled to the Union lines\, and transformed Sherman’s march into the biggest liberation event in American history. \nAbout the book \nIn the fall of 1864\, Gen. William T. Sherman led his army through Atlanta\, Georgia\, burning buildings of military significance—and ultimately most of the city—along the way. From Atlanta\, they marched across the state to the most important city at the time: Savannah. \nMired in the deep of the South with no reliable supply lines\, Sherman’s army had to live off the land and the provisions on the plantations they seized along the way. As the army marched to the east\, plantation owners fled\, but even before they did so\, slaves self-emancipated to Union lines. By the time the army seized Savannah in December\, as many as 20\,000 enslaved people had attached themselves to Sherman’s army. \nIn Somewhere Toward Freedom\, historian Bennett Parten brilliantly reframes this seminal episode in Civil War history. He not only helps us understand how Sherman’s March impacted the war\, and what it meant to the enslaved\, but also reveals how it laid the foundation for the fledgling efforts of Reconstruction. \nSherman’s march has remained controversial to this day. But as Parten reveals\, it played a significant role in ending the Civil War\, due in no small part to the efforts of the tens of thousands of enslaved people who became a part of it. In Somewhere Toward Freedom\, this critical moment in American history has finally been given the attention it deserves. \nAbout the author \nBennett Parten is an assistant professor of history at Georgia Southern University whose area of expertise is the Civil War period. He is a native of Royston\, Georgia\, and completed his PhD in history at Yale University. His writing has appeared in The Washington Post\, Los Angeles Review of Books\, Zocalo Public Square\, and The Civil War Monitor\, among others. He currently lives in Savannah\, Georgia. \nAbout the conversation partner \nRobert Colby is an award-winning scholar and teacher of United States history\, and the author of An Unholy Traffic: Slave trading in the Civil War South. His work on the domestic slave trade during the Civil War has won the Society of American Historians’ Allan Nevins Prize and the Anthony Kaye Memorial Essay Award and Anne J. Bailey Prize from the Society of Civil War Historians. Originally from Virginia (where he grew up walking Civil War battlefields)\, he is now an Assistant Professor of History at the University of Mississippi.

SUMMARY:Adam Ross for Playworld
DESCRIPTION:Author Adam Ross in conversation for Playworld\, a story of miseducation set in a bygone Manhattan. \n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the book \n“In the fall of 1980\, when I was fourteen\, a friend of my parents named Naomi Shah fell in love with me. She was thirty-six\, a mother of two\, and married to a wealthy man. Like so many things that happened to me that year\, it didn’t seem strange at the time.” \nGriffin Hurt is in over his head. Between his role as Peter Proton on the hit TV show The Nuclear Family and the pressure of high school at New York’s elite Boyd Prep—along with the increasingly compromising demands of his wrestling coach—he’s teetering on the edge of collapse. \nThen comes Naomi Shah\, twenty-two years Griffin’s senior. Unwilling to lay his burdens on his shrink—whom he shares with his father\, mother\, and younger brother\, Oren—Griffin soon finds himself in the back of Naomi’s Mercedes sedan\, again and again\, confessing all to the one person who might do him the most harm. \nLess a bildungsroman than a story of miseducation\, Playworld is a novel of epic proportions\, bursting with laughter and heartache. \nAbout the author \nAdam Ross is the author of Mr. Peanut\, which was selected as one of the best books of the year by The New York Times\, The New Yorker\, and The Economist. He has been a fellow in fiction at the American Academy in Berlin and a Hodder Fellow for Fiction at Princeton University. He is editor of The Sewanee Review. Born and raised in New York City\, he now lives in Nashville\, Tennessee\, with his two daughters
