SUMMARY:Moveable Feast: Quitman Marshall (Swampitude: Escapes with the Congaree)
DESCRIPTION:A song of praise for swamps and twice a finalist for the River Teeth Literary Nonfiction Book Prize\, Swampitude is a meditation on the nature of this terrain\, its meaning\, its mystery\, its fearfulness\, its shelter\, and its healing power.\n\n\n\nThe book celebrates the survival\, the stories\, and the continuance of swamps in general\, and a particular swamp\, the Congaree in the center of South Carolina\, which has been designated a United Nations Biosphere Reserve and is now Congaree National Park.\n\n\n\nMarshall tells stories that intersect with swamp-linked lives\, making literature of the place\, a place in the middle into which things flow and come out changed. Born in South Carolina\, Quitman Marshall grew up in the swamp.\n\n\n\nHe has published five books of poetry\, including You Were Born One Time (2014)\, which won the SC Poetry Archives Book Prize. A winner of the Writers Exchange Award sponsored by Poets and Writers\, Inc.\, and the founding coordinator of the Literary Series at the Spoleto Festival\, USA\, he lives in Beaufort\, SC\, with his family where he works as a writer\, editor\, translator\, and teacher. Photography for the book is the work of Peggy Peattie\, a multiple award-winning photo-journalist for The State.\n\n\n\nThere's room for you\, your best friend\, your book club\, your summer guests ... in ALL of the Moveable Feasts through the summer. These weekly literary luncheons ($35 each\, unless special conditions prevail) offer a three-fer discount (3 for $100\, whether for future Moveable Feasts or to treat friends on a given date). \n\n\n\nMost of the Moveable Feasts are held mid-week from 11 AM-1 PM\, although on occasion another day better suits the author's schedule or the chosen venue.\n\n\n\nWe will call unpaid reservations several days prior to each Moveable Feast for confirmation and approval to run your credit card. If you prefer to send a check\, please make it payable to CLASS\, PO Box 2884\, Pawleys Island\, SC 29585. We're always happy to double check your choices by phone (843.235.9600) or email (linda@classatpawleys.com).
