<p>The Champaign County Library presents an evening with Beth Macy, as part of the tour for her new book,
<i>Truevine: Two Brothers, a Kidnapping, and a Mother's Quest: A True Story of the Jim Crow South</i>. The program will be held at Urbana University's Sara Landess Room (8 College Way, Urbana, OH 43078) at 7pm on Tuesday, November 29. Macy is also the author
of <i>Factory Man: How One Furniture Maker Battled Offshoring, Stayed Local--and Helped Save an American Town</i>. Macy delivers exceptional programs as evidenced when she previously spoke at the library to a standing room only crowd.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>"Macy's exploration of the long-hidden fate of two young African Americans and how that fate illuminates the atrocities of the Jim Crow South is as compelling as Rebecca Skloot's
<i>The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks</i>...both are absolutely stunning examples of narrative nonfiction at its best.... Certain to be among the most memorable books of the year." Connie Fletcher,
<i>Booklist</i>.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Copies of <i>Truevine </i>will be available for purchase and can be signed at the event. A reception following the event will be sponsored by the Friends of the Champaign County Library. If you have any questions, please contact the Champaign County Library,
(937) 653-3811.</p>
