Lynne Bryant - Catfish Alley

How Our Events Work

BookPeople is proud to host over 300 events every year. Our events are free and open to the public, unless otherwise stated.

To get a book signed at one of our events, a copy of the event book must be purchased from BookPeople. By purchasing a book from BookPeople, you are not only supporting a local, independent business, but you are also showing publishers that they should continue sending authors to BookPeople. Think of it this way: you wouldn't bring your own beer to a bar, would you?

For events where we anticipate large crowds, wristbands may be required in order to join the signing line. Occasionally we may also ticket events. In both cases, information as to when wristbands/tickets are available will be found on that event's specific page on our website.

Adult Event

Start: 05/30/2011 7:00 pm

Author LYNNE BRYANT will speak about and sign her debut novel about female friendship, endurance and hope in the South, Catfish Alley.

In this moving debut novel about female friendship, endurance, and hope in the South, Roxanne Reeves, a woman defined by social status and the committees she leads, reluctantly accepts a project to document her town's African-American history. As elderly Grace Clark leads Roxanne to Catfish Alley to hear stories of the past, particularly of 1931, Roxanne gains an appreciation of the dreams, courage, and endurance of those she had so easily dismissed, her own life opens up in new and unexpected ways.
