Pat Cunningham Devoto has stories to share from her new book, “Bookin’ in the Big House”

Author Pat Cunningham Devoto joins us at The NewSouth Bookstore with a fine new work, Bookin’ in the Big House: What I Learned Leading a Women’s Prison Book Club. Rich in humanity and with stories to make you laugh and cry, the book chronicles her surprising experiences — hint: they’re anything but literary — over the seven years she led a book club for women in a Montgomery Women’s Correctional Facility. Devoto pulls back the curtain on this unfamiliar world for our bookstore audience and readers like you!
