This review is from: Books of Passage: 30 North Carolina Writers on the Books That Changed Their Lives (Hardcover)

Of the many things that shape our lives, perhaps few are more important to the budding writer than the books he or she reads. "Books of Passage" takes us into the hearts and lives of twenty-seven of North Carolina's most beloved writers. From Hurlbut's Bible to the Autobiography of Malcom X, these authors share a moment and a book that transformed their lives and set their feet on a different path. Reading this book is as comfortable as settling down on the sofa for a chat with a friend. Add a mug of hot chocolate and you're in for a heavenly evening! -Sandra S. Provenzano
