The Big Read

Many thanks to AC for this tip about The Big Read. The National Endowment for the Arts has a nationwide One Book, One Community program that offers a variety of titles for communities to read together. For metro Atlanta, there are 3 classic novels in the current Big Read program.
  • Towne Lake Arts Center: To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
  • Kennesaw State University: The Heart is a Lonely Hunter by Carson McCullers
  • Atlanta History Center's Literary Center: Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston
Doesn't seeing those titles want to make you read or reread them? Learn more about the Big Read by reading their blog at www.arts.gov/bigreadblog/. Their blog is fun and filled with lots of great information.
