Blood, Bone and Marrow: A Biography of Harry Crews
Thursday, March 22, 2018 $10
2:30 – 3:45 PM River’s Crossing campus

Harry Crews’ life of poverty as he grew up in 1930's rural Georgia influenced his novels, stories, essays, and autobiography, A Childhood: The Biography of a Place. His Southern Gothic characters and plots mixed with his experiences with the substance abuse culture of the last half of the twentieth century to produce decades of novels, his last being 2006’s The Baby with the Curious Markings. Crews taught creative writing at the University of Florida and was inducted into the Georgia Writers Hall of Fame in 2001. Norman Mailer once wrote that Harry Crews “begins where James Dickey left off.”
