CLA Reads! Lovely Children and Recovering Alcoholics
CLA Reads! is a series of informal discussions, faculty-led seminars, and related events focused around Lewis Nordan's The Sharpshooter Blues (Algonquin Books, 1995). All events are open to all members of the Auburn University Community. From The Orlando Sentinel: The Sharpshooter Blues contains the 'portrayal -- without the slightest bit of sentimentality -- of human beings who have every right to give up on life but who, with a few notable exceptions, not only find a way to live but also discover within themselves the grace to help someone else.' Be on the lookout for more events in this series.Copies of The Sharpshooter Blues may be purchased in the AU Bookstore. ISBN 1-56512-182-1
