PRAYERS FOR SALE, by Sandra Dallas (4-14-2009)
In her charming new novel, Dallas (The Persian Pickle Club, Tallgrass, etc.) offers up the unconventional friendship between Hennie Comfort, a natural storyteller entering the twilight of her life, and Nit Spindle, a nave young newlywed, forged in the isolated mining town of Middle Swan, Colo., in 1936. When the two meet, Hennie recognizes her younger self in Nit, and she’s immediately struck with a desire to nurture and guide Nit, who is lonely and adrift in her new hometown and her brand-new marriage. As Hennie regales Nit with stories and advice, the two become inseparable and pass several seasons huddled around their quilting with the other women of Middle Swan. Even though Hennie maintains an air of c’est la vie as she unravels her life story, Nit and the reader soon realize there are tragedies and secrets hidden behind Hennie’s tranquil demeanor. This satisfying novel will immediately draw readers into Hennie and Nit’s lives, and the unexpected twists will keep them hooked through to the bittersweet denouement.
With this new series of speakers/events…starting in February…we will have fun, learn, and support our local community and the larger community across oceans. Call the store and make your reservations now! We begin by “Living Juicy” with Chalice Springfield, on February 9th.
Please join us this Friday, November 14th, and Saturday, November 15th from 9:00AM to 5:00PM.

Happy Holidays!
