Fall for the Book 2019

Delia Owens takes to the stage to discuss her #1 New York Times bestselling novel Where the Crawdads Sing. The book follows “Marsh Girl” Kya Clark, who has survived for years alone in the lush marshes of North Carolina. Two local boys become enraptured by her wild beauty and when someone is murdered, the town suspects her. The New York Times Book Review calls it “A painfully beautiful first novel that is at once a murder mystery, a coming-of-age narrative and a celebration of nature.” Where the Crawdads Sing is the top-selling book of 2019. Sponsored by the Fairfax Library Foundation.

Like all Fall for the Book events (except where noted), this event is free and does not require a ticket.
