New York Times bestselling author Wiley Cash will be the guest of the Friends of the Library during a luncheon at 11:30 a.m. Tuesday, September 25, at Pinewood Country Club. Tickets are $25 and can be purchased at the Asheboro Public Library. The ticket price covers the cost of lunch. Cash, who lives in Wilmington, will talk about his most recent novel, The Last Ballad, which focuses on heroic women and men of the labor movement in the textile mills of Gastonia during the early 20th century, who risked their lives to secure basic rights for workers. Cash’s first novel, A Land More Kind Than Home, became a bestseller. It was named a New York Times Notable Book of the Year and received multiple awards, including the Southern Independent Booksellers Book Award. A North Carolina native, Cash is writer in residence at the University of North Carolina at Asheville, and has held residency positions at Yaddo (an artists’ retreat in New York) and the McDowell Colony in New Hampshire.
