First Novel Prize book release and author talk

Take advantage of two opportunities to celebrate the release of the 2012 South Carolina First Novel prize, In the Garden of Stone by Spartanburg author Susan Tekulve.

On April 18, Tekulve is the featured author for the Speaker @ the Center program in Columbia. The program takes place from noon to 1 p.m. at the South Carolina State Library’s Center for the Book in Columbia. Bring your lunch!

On April 25, the official Hub City Press book launch takes place from 7 – 8:30 p.m. at The Showroom in Spartanburg.

Both events are free and open to the public, and books will be available for purchase and autographing. You can pre-order your copy of the book today.

In the Garden of Stone is a multi-generational tale about the nature of power and pride, love and loss, and how one impoverished family endures estrangement from their land and each other in order to unearth the rich seams of forgiveness.
