Some may have heard of Pernassus Book Store, situated in Nashville, TN.  It is an iconic, independent bookstore owned and operated by Ann Patchett.  It was a brave act to open such a store six years ago, going against the strong current of a mighty river.  There was a reading the night we attended.  Joan Silber reading from her novel Improvement.  It was a delightful evening.  Hard to not like a bookstore with such friendly staff and a dog running around like he owned the place.

"You know a movie or a book has got you hooked when you start feeling relieved when bad things don't happen to the characters, when it's looking like they will.  A sophisticated novel about unsophisticated people."  --  Alan Twigg


​"Never since Jack Hodgins made mirth and myth out of lumberjacks has Settler Coast culture been so accurately rendered"  --  Linda Rogers
