Meet the Author/F. Kennerly Clay
Harford County Public Library welcomes author F. Kennerly Clay, who will be reading from her memoir, "Letters from East of Nowhere - Daddy’s Words to Live, Drink & Die By," on October 26 from 2 to 3 p.m. at the Bel Air Library, 100 East Pennsylvania Avenue. The book is about the consequences of a life free of commitments against a backdrop of wandering, music and overindulgence. It was the free-spirited lifestyle romanticized in Jack Kerouac’s 1957 novel "On the Road" that beckoned to Clay’s father, which also led him to a lifetime of failed relationships, mishaps with the law and a never-ending struggle with alcoholism. In the writing of "Letters from East of Nowhere," Clay has found her own voice, delivering an honest reflection on life, on the passionate craziness of the Sixties and on learning to love a man who would always choose alcohol over everything else. She is the co-author of "The Buzz on Travel" and "Calling of Ancestors: Finding Forgotten Secrets in My DNA.” Clay resides with her husband and two sons outside Philadelphia. Copies of the book will be available to purchase at the program. For more information, visit https://programs.hcplonline.org/event/11250645.
