The Newnan Carnegie Library and the Newnan Carnegie Library Foundation are proud to welcome author, Carolyn Curry to the Carnegie on Sunday, September 25th at 2:30 pm as a part of the Edgar B. Hollis Distinguished Author Series.
Carolyn Newton Curry is an award-winning author, historian, and non-profit founder and director of Women Alone Together®. She holds a BA from Agnes Scott College and a MA and PhD from Georgia State University. In 2014, she published Suffer and Grow Strong: The Life of Ella Gertrude Clanton Thomas 1834-1907.
Her new book, Sudden Death is a murder mystery set in the world of football and written by a woman who has lived her entire life as the wife of a player and coach. But it is more than a whodunit. In the guise of a mystery, there is an insightful look at the troubling aspects of gambling in sports, addiction, spouse abuse, and death threats to coaches and their wives. But a far more meaningful message is the survival and triumph of the human spirit. Finally, it is a love story between a man and woman who are committed to one another and their desire to make the world a better place.
A book signing will follow Dr. Curry’s author talk.
Registration is requested and can be made through Eventbrite at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/388230777707
