The next author featured at the Literacy Council’s Signature Series fundraising event is a New York Times best-selling writer and a Birmingham native. Sena Jeter Naslund will release her latest novel, “Adam & Eve,” at a private cocktail reception at one of Birmingham’s most prominent homes.
The reception will be Sept. 28 at 6:30 p.m.
The Signature Series brings at least three well-known authors to Birmingham throughout the year to help raise money for the Literacy Council, a non-profit organization dedicated to strengthening and supporting organizations that provide literacy services in central Alabama.
In an intimate setting, patrons are able to mingle with the author and receive a signed copy of his or her latest work.
Naslund became a New York Times best-selling author after her first novel, “Ahab’s Wife.” She followed that book with the critically-acclaimed “Four Spirits” and “Abundance: A Novel of Marie Antoinette.”
After graduating from Phillips High School, she received her undergraduate degree from Birmingham Southern College, where she won the B.B. Comer Medal in English. She earned a master’s degree and doctorate from the University of Iowa Writers’ Workshop.
