Authors to hold event at General Lewis

The General Lewis Inn is hosting a literary event with authors Mesha Maren and Anne Maren-Hogan on July 3 at 4 p.m. Mesha Maren will read from her latest novel, Perpetual West. Anne Maren-Hogan will read from her recent collection of poetry, Vernacular. Come enjoy refreshments with this mother and daughter reading in the gardens at the Inn.

UNCA Professor Eric Nelson said, “There’s so many outstanding poets in this area, including Anne Maren-Hogan, whose recently published book, Vernacular, won the 2021 Lena Shull Book Award from the N.C. Poetry Society. Anne’s voice and vision come from her childhood on a farm in Iowa, as well as from her adulthood in an intentional community near Burnsville. That may seem idyllic, and in some ways, it is, but Anne’s poems are clear-eyed in their depiction of not only wonder and beauty, but also the harshness of living where ‘life and death dare each other’ and the outcome is uncertain. It’s a rich and compelling collection.”

Jennifer Clement wrote in the New York Times that, “Mesha Maren’s novel Perpetual West follows her praiseworthy debut Sugar Run and is delivered in the same measured yet stunning prose.”
