Book Signing-Wilmot Irvin

November 23, 2018 @ 11:00 am - November 24, 2018 @ 3:00 pm

Book Signing by Wilmot Irvin
Wilmot Irvin has a new book out! A self-described lawyer by day and novelist by night, Irvin is known to many in Saluda already. His first novel, Jack’s Passage, was set in our mountain town. As a boy he spent summers here, and caught the Saluda bug early. He and his wife Jeannie, who is an artist, have a home on Walnut Street where Wilmot has done much of his writing over the past two decades. They have three grown children and an eleven-year-old, and family relationships is a theme that runs deep in Irvin’s fiction.
Here’s what some book folks are saying about Wilmot’s seventh novel, Little Trespasses:
“The characters were delightfully Southern and quirky. I loved the dialogue and the fast-paced flow of the writing. The intertwined stories touching on sexual orientation, sexual affairs, faith, family secrets, special relationships, and criminal activities – from robbery and assault to hate crimes and murder – were all peppered with the appropriate amount of wryness. The twists and turns, the little pieces of information gleaned here and there throughout the novel, all made for an intriguing read. I think this excellent novel will be well-received.” ~Sherry Browett, Booklover, Fairfax, VA
“As a long-time fan of Wilmot Irvin’s fiction, I thought he had written his best with a quirky little masterpiece titled Chronicle of the Life and Times of Fletcher Lowe. I was wrong. In Little Trespasses, he scales an even higher peak in a quintessential Southern novel about the human heart. The reader won’t soon forget the story Irvin spins about Jake Plantain, Jr., a man for all seasons.” ~Robert Lamb, author of A Majority of One and Atlanta Blues
“Book Signing: Wilmot Irvin will be signing copies of his new book at Meanwhile, Back In Saluda on Friday, November 23 from 11:00 to 3:00. Wilmot will also sign copies on Saturday, November 24.”
