Program Description
Event Details
Andrew Dietz will be at Pack Library to discuss his new YA/Adult crossover novel Ever U. This will be a discussion-oriented program for readers, educators, and students about creative identity and artistic formation.
Ever U explores creative identity and the pressures young artists face as they try to discern their direction in life. The story is rooted in Western North Carolina and draws inspiration from places such as Black Mountain College, the Judaculla Rock petroglyphs, and other regional history and landscapes that have long influenced artists and thinkers in this area.
