Lit & Art at Smyser-Bair House for York First Friday

The Lit and Art Reading Series is at it again!

This Friday, December 1, join the proprietors of The Historic York Inn / Smyser-Bair House as the popular Lit and Art Reading Series presents an old fashioned Holiday Book and Art Bazaar along with an evening of live music, literary readings, original artwork, free snacks, drinks, tours of the mansion, and fun! 


Berkshire-Hathaway offers tours of the 1830s mansion, The Smyser-Bair House / Historic York Inn. Step back in time for a tour through history, with hand-carved, gilded Pier mirrors, stained glass, etched glass, hand plasterwork, woodwork, and chandeliers that rival those found in museums. Anchored in York’s historic district since the 1830s, and belonging to the Smyser-Bair family until 1979 (when it was left to the York Historical Trust before becoming a private inn) this home is a rich part of York's history, recently featured in front page news and on national television for its historic charm. (And it could be yours.)

It's all part of York's First Friday festivities.

Book Reviews Published in Baltimore Style

Three of my book reviews were published in the most recent issue of Baltimore Style Magazine as the current issue's "Shelf Life" feature.

The three books reviewed for Baltimore Style's Shelf Life are Behind the Moon by Madison Smartt Bell, Lincoln in the Bardo by George Saunders, and Last of the Annamese by Tom Glenn. Three very different, but very good, novels.

Read the reviews, in print or online, in the current issue of Baltimore Style.
