Robert Gipe recommends
A Woman in Time (2022)
Bobi Conn
"The grace and lyricism of Conn's prose stuns and sustains the reader through this lush tale of women's strength, creativity, and will to love in Depression-era Eastern Kentucky. Conn's poise and confidence as a storyteller hold the reader in a loving embrace through many a well-wrought and gut-wrenching episode, then brings us out the other side more awake to the preciousness of life and what it means to be accountable to one another across a span of generations. Bobi Conn's A Woman in Time is an inspiration."
