Holding On To Nothing by Elizabeth Chiles Shelburne
Lucy Kilgore is hell-bent on getting out of her rural Tennessee hometown – until an unplanned pregnancy leaves her bound to a hard-drinking bluegrass musician in a shotgun marriage. Debut author Elizabeth Chiles Shelburne is a former editor at The Atlantic who completed Holding On To Nothing in Grub Street’s well-known “Novel Incubator” program.
Booklist calls the book “riveting, touching, heart-wrenching, tragic, and beautiful.”
