Program Description

Event Details

Southern Fiction, Family, Friendship, and Forgiveness. Join us on the second Thursday of each month at 5:30pm as we discuss positive reads that will leave you connected, encouraged, inspired, and entertained.

 

Sean Dietrich, better known as Sean of the South, introduces us to the “Kinfolk” from southern Alabama in the 1970s.

"Sixty-two-year-old Jeremiah Lewis Taylor, or “Nub,” has spent his whole life listening to those he loves tell him he’s no good—first his ex-wife, now his always-disapproving daughter. Sure, his escapades have made him, along with his cousin and perennial sidekick, Benny, just a smidge too familiar with small-town law enforcement, but he’s never harmed anyone—except perhaps himself."

"Nub never meant to change his ways, but when he and fifteen-year-old Waffle House waitress Minnie form an unlikely friendship, he realizes for the first time that there may be some good in him after all. Six-foot-five Minnie has been dealt a full deck of bad luck—her father is a convicted murderer serving a life sentence, her mother is dead and buried, and she has a Grand Ole Opry–worthy singing voice with no place to perform..."

"Gradually, Nub realizes the gift he’s been given: a second chance to make a difference."
