The second "Welty at Home" book club pick is Margaret Walker's signature novel, Jubilee. An award-winning poet, novelist, and English professor at Jackson State University, Walker formed a special literary friendship with Welty. They referred to their friendship as their "sister act." Together, we'll read and discuss Jubilee over the course of three weeks. On Tuesdays, at noon CST, the Eudora Welty House & Garden will host live book discussions on Zoom, led by Margaret Walker Center director and civil rights historian Dr. Robby Luckett.
