From the publisher: "Weaving together multiple strands and generations of this family, from the Deep South to California, from the 1950s to the 1990s, Brit Bennett produces a story that is at once a riveting, emotional family story and a brilliant exploration of the American history of passing. Looking well beyond issues of race, The Vanishing Half considers the lasting influence of the past as it shapes a person's decisions, desires, and expectations, and explores some of the multiple reasons and realms in which people sometimes feel pulled to live as something other than their origins."

Fairview Library
There is a saying among the Appalachian Trail (AT) community: “You never really leave the Trail.” Even after you’ve hiked your last mile and hung up your boots for the season, a part of you remains in the mountains. Writing from their perspectives as thru-hikers, Joshua and Amber Niven – a husband/wife, photographer/writer team based in Western North Carolina – lovingly compiled Discovering the Appalachian Trail for hikers of all experience levels.
Whether you’re a tenderfoot hiker or a seasoned explorer, Joshua and Amber aim to inspire wisdom and wonder in any reader. Join the authors for an evening of discussion, readings, and stories as they guide you through an intimate exploration of this iconic footpath.
Copies of their book, published by Falcon Guides, will be available for purchase.
This program is presented with financial support from the Friends of Fairview Library. .
