HAGP speakers series: Laury A. Egan 

"The Creative Individual and the Correlation to Non-Believing, with a Reading from The Outcast Oracle.

Humanist author Laury A. Egan will read from and sign copies of her novel, "The Outcast Oracle." She will discuss the book and its Humanist themes.The book was included in Kirkus Review's "Best Books of 2013" and was called "Simply delicious fun from start to finish."  

Set in 1959, near New York’s Lake Ontario, Charlene Whitestone has been deserted by her parents and left in the custody of her grandfather C.B. Although he loves Charlie, C.B. is a charming con artist, moonshiner, and religious fraud who inducts her into his various enterprises. Written in a satiric Mark Twain style, The Outcast Oracle is a great read for adults and teenagers.

Laury A. Egan is the author of The Outcast Oracle and the collection, Fog and Other Stories, both published by Humanist Press in 2013, as well as the psychological suspense novel, Jenny Kidd (Vagabondage Press). Two volumes of poetry, Snow, Shadows, a Stranger and Beneath the Lion’s Paw as well as a chapbook, The Sea & Beyond, were issued by FootHills Publishing.
