Notă biografică
Sculptor and visual artist, Jane F. Hankins of Little Rock, Arkansas, is best known for her ceramic sculptures of colorful senior citizens and gnomes. One of ten Arkansas women artists included in a juried show at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, DC, Jane has been a strong presence in the Arkansas artists’ community for over three decades. A graduate of Arkansas State University, Hankins plans two sequels in the Peavine Chronicles, of which the present book is volume one. Excerpts from this novel have been produced in a reader's theater production at Arkansas Repertory Theater. Hankins lives in Little Rock, Arkansas with her husband, the broadcaster Craig O'Neill.
Recenzii
“Now Jane—always witty and original—has taken her inspired style to the printed page.”
"We at the Rep heard the laughter that came from a reader's theater based on this book when it was produced on our stage several years ago. Knowing first-hand how much readers will enjoy it—as our audiences did—gives me a thrill."
"Everything Jane touches turns into something magical. This novel promises to be one of her most enchanting pieces of art."
"Jane was there for us at the very beginning of the Thea Foundation. What a joy to witness her debut as a novelist. This is going to be fun!"
"Any similarity between the characters contained in this book and those Jane and I have met over our 40 years together is intentionally accidental. Say what?"
