Join us to discuss Red Clay by Charles B. Fancher. \;In 1943\, when a frail old white woman shows up in Red Clay \, Alabama\, at the home of a Black former slave--on the morning following his funeral--his family hardly knows what to expect after she utters the words '...a lifetime ago\, my family owned yours.' Adelaide Parker has a s tory to tell--one of ambition\, betrayal\, violence\, &\; redemption--t hat shaped both the fate of her family &\; that of the late Felix H. Pa rker. But there are gaps in her knowledge\, &\; she's come to Red Clay seeking answers from a family with whom she shares a name &\; a history that neither knows in full. In an epic saga that takes us from Red Clay t o Paris\, to the Cô\;te d'Azur &\; New Orleans\, human frailties a re pushed to their limits as secrets are exposed &\; the line between g ood &\; evil becomes ever more difficult to discern. Please attend via Zoom. \;
