The Cutting Season by Attica Locke

Wednesday, February 26, 2013
In honor of Black History Month, we are reading The Cutting Season by Attica Locke for our February book group meeting.

Summary (from Amazon): For many native Louisianans, Belle Vie, a large antebellum plantation situated between Baton Rouge and New Orleans, is a symbol of beauty and the South's genteel past. For others, it is a monumental reminder of the evils of slavery. The estate becomes the center of further controversy when a young woman is found lying facedown in a shallow grave, her throat cut clean.

Our December dinner was canceled due to a Level 2 snowstorm, so we're holding our February meeting at a local restaurant on February 26th at 6:30 pm.  If you haven't registered, please contact Bonnie at 740.349.5524 or email her at bstrope@lickingcountylibrary.info.
