About The Event
“THEY STILL CALL HER BOOK WOMAN, HAVING LONG FORGOTTEN THE EPITHET FOR HER COBALT-BLUE FLESH, THOUGH SHE’S GONE NOW FROM THESE HILLS AND HOLLERS, FROM HER LOVING HUSBAND AND DAUGHTER AND ENDEARING JUNIA, HER PATRONS AND THEIR HEARTACHES AND YEARNINGS FOR MORE. BUT YOU MUST KNOW ANOTHER STORY, REALLY ALL THE OTHER IMPORTANT STORIES THAT SWIRLED AROUND AND AFTER HER, BEFORE THEY ARE LOST TO WINTERS OF ROTTING FOLIAGE AND SLEEPING TREES, SWALLOWED INTO THE SPRING HYMNALS OF BIRDSONG RISING ABOVE CARPETS OF PHLOX, SNAKEROOT AND FOXGLOVE. THESE STORIES BEG TO BE UNSPOOLED FROM KENTUCKY’S HARDENED OLD HANDS, TO BE BOUND AND ETERNALLY ROOTED LIKE THE POPLAR AND OAK TO THE EVERLASTING LAND.”
