Meet the Author

The College of Education and Human Development at the University of Minnesota offers "a two-semester curriculum focused on the social, academic, and institutional needs of first-year students." This year the program, called CE+HD Reads, brought together students and faculty to read A Lesson Before Dying. They were also joined by the author, Ernest Gaines, who spoke via videoconference. You can see the entire interview with Gaines here.

Magers & Quinn is pleased to be the bookseller for CE+HD Reads. Whether your school is big or small, we hope you'll contact us when you need books.--David E
