Our friend novelist Elizabeth Spencer will get some serious on-air attention tonight when UNC-TV runs (after a delay of 3 days) the recorded live performance of “Light in the Piazza” the musical based on her novella by the same name (the show suns locally at 8 pm tonight and ran nationally this past Thursday). At 10:30 pm, UNC-TV will rerun a BookWatch interview with Elizabeth from a couple of years back.
Day: June 18, 2006
Spent Saturday on trip down to Snow Hill in Greene County where Sally had worked on a landfill case. A first trip there for both of us — I may have driven through some decades back. Sally has a good write up of the trip and the events there. What are the curses/blessings of Greene? Landfills. Hog farms (with associated waste problems). Prisons.
