Support a Great Cause!
I had the
honor of meeting Dorothea Benton Frank at Barnes and Noble Buckhead in Atlanta
Georgia. She is currently on tour for
the Hurricane Sisters, and shared
with us a little about the story in her new novel. She also assured us that it is very
funny! I very much enjoyed the last
novel I read by her so I am sure that this one will be a treat.
One cause
that is close to her heart is the domestic violence. Dorothea was conducting a search one day on
the internet. There is a top ten list of
states in the United States that are bad for handling domestic violence
cases. She found out that
For each city that Dorothea visits on her tour
for the Hurricane Sisters is being
donated to shelters for women in domestic violence situations. This novel will surely give a welcomed break
to the reality of these women who go through on a daily basis.
One of those
shelters is the International Women’s House.
This shelter helps immigrant and refugee women and their children. The shelter located domestically here is in
Decatur Georgia.
