SUMMARY:Deadwood History\, Inc. to Host One Book South Dakota Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Deadwood History\, Inc. will host the One Book South Dakota Program featuring Some Luck by Jane Smiley\n\nRefreshments will be served\n\nEach chapter in this extraordinary novel covers a single year\, encompassing the sweep of history as the Langdon's abide by time-honored values and pass them on to their children. With the country on the cusp of enormous social and economic change through the early 1950s\, we watch as the personal and the historical merge seamlessly: one moment electricity is just beginning to power the farm\, and the next a son is volunteering to fight the Nazis. Later still\, we are introduced to a young girl whose story we follow as she grows into adulthood and eventually becomes a mother. \n\nThe first volume of an epic trilogy from a beloved writer at the height of her powers\, Some Luck starts us on a literary adventure through cycles of birth and death\, passion and betrayal that will span a century in America.  Some Luck by Jane Smiley was the winner of the 1992 Pulitzer Prize in Fiction. \n\nDr. Joanna Jones' forty-year teaching career took her across Texas\, New Mexico and Arizona before she returned to the Black Hills of South Dakota. At Arizona State University\, Jones completed her doctorate in reading education. She has presented on a variety of literacy topics at state\, regional\, and national conferences. Internationally\, Jones shared research with educators in Portugal\, Scotland\, New Zealand\, and China. \n\nThe workshop is co-sponsored by the Deadwood Historic Preservation Commission\, Deadwood History\, Adams-Mastrovich Family Foundation\, and South Dakota Humanities Council\, an affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
