In honor of
Erskine Caldwell's 100 birthday, the Erskine Caldwell Museum committee
has set a storytelling event for tomorrow at Moreland Elementary School,
featuring writers Margaret Anne Barnes and Dot Moore. They will share
stories from their writing experiences and a book signing will also take
place.
Barnes is known
for her "Murder in Coweta County" and "A Buzzard is My
Best Friend." Moore wrote "Oracle of the Ages," an acclaimed
biography of Mayhayley Lancaster which won the Georgia Historical Society's
book award.
The program
begins at 2 p.m. and end at 5 p.m. with light refreshments being served
during the book signing.
"We can't
think of a better way to celebrate Caldwelal's 100th birthday than to
celebrate what is special and unique about Southern writing and storytelling,"
said museum committee chairman Winston Skinner.
Caldwell wrote
more than 50 books, including "God's Little Acre" and "Tobacco
Road."
The museum
collection includes numerous Caldwell books in many languages, photographs,
theater programs and items that belonged to Caldwell and his family.
Admission to
the event is free.
