Author Beverly Lewis
Thief River Falls and Greenbush Libraries
|
On Monday, April 16, Award-winning, bestselling author Beverly Lewis will make two stops through our area in promotion of The Fiddler, the first book in an exciting new series, Home to Hickory Hollow. She will be making stops at the Thief River Falls and Greenbush Library. Call or stop in for more information.
As one of the top-selling authors in the inspirational market, Lewis is not only the leading author of Amish fiction, but also its pioneer: She created the genre with the release of her first adult novel, The Shunning, in 1997. Recent surges in both reader interest and publisher output of Amish fiction have gained national attention, garnering coverage by Time magazine, the BBC World News service, The Wall Street Journal, and Nightline, among others.  The on-sale date for The Fiddler is April 10.
