WebsiteDirections

Join Friend of the Florence County Public Library for an afternoon Meet & Greet with Susan Zurenda as she discusses, "No Way Out But Through" her searing new novel inspired by the real life of a woman who overcame an appalling childhood and forced child marriage. Susan’s complex characters capture readers’ hearts and don’t let go in this deeply emotional story of two women of different generations—one the victim of an abusive teen marriage and the other damaged from her former marriage to an alcoholic husband—who meet under odd circumstances.

This event is FREE!

But let them know your going. Early birds get entered to win a gift card from Jack's Books
