SUMMARY:A Literary Visit With Sophie Kerr
DESCRIPTION:A Literary Visit With Sophie Kerr Saturday\, November 4th\, at the old Country Club TWO SHOWS: 12:00pm\, lunch matinee\; 6:00pm evening dinner Sophie Kerr may well be one of the most popular writers of her time that most people have never heard of. A native of Denton\, she wrote 23 novels and over 500 short stories\, as well as several plays. She has several film credits\, as well. Modern critics\, perhaps a little unfairly\, dismiss her works as escapist literature. Though many of her stories seem rather tame by today's standards\, during her time they were scandalous! They included cheating spouses\, drunken wife abusers\, women balking at social norms and deserving greater recognition in the workplace (keep in mind that much of this was written before the days of Rosie the Riveter)\, parents who mistreated or even disliked children\, and even women giving birth out of wedlock! Many of her heroines subordinate and emasculate husbands\, boyfriends\, or bosses who wrong them. Sophie was published in a plethora of women's magazines and received many accolades modern critics have since dismissed. The Caroline County Public Library and Caroline County Council of Arts will offer a small taste of works worthy of more literary consideration\, and Brooke Schultz will be the guest speaker. The event will be held on Saturday\, November 4th\, at the old Country Club. The matinee will start at noon and the dinner event at 6:00PM. Meals will be provided by the Culinary Center. Tickets cost $45.00 and may be purchased online at ccca.booktix.com or in person at the Foundry\, 401 Market Street\, Denton.
