An Evening with Novelist Carolyn Hooker, Author of Leaving Edgefield
2026-02-26 17:00 - 18:30 | Pat Conroy Literary Center
The nonprofit Pat Conroy Literary Center will host an evening with historical novelist Carolyn Hooker, author of Leaving Edgefield, on Thursday, February 26, at 5:00 p.m., at the Conroy Center (601 Bladen St., Beaufort). Books will be available for sale and signing. Seating is limited for this free event; please call in advance to reserve: 843-379-7025.
ABOUT THE NOVEL“Carolyn Hooker’s Leaving Edgefield is an absolutely beautiful novel, full of unquestionably genuine souls fighting to maintain dignity, faith, and affection in their lives. You will feel their love, fall into their hope, ache from their pain, and experience the fullness of their humanity in this remarkable story about one family’s fight to stay together and control their destiny.”–Jeffery Blount, Author of Mr. Jimmy from Around the Way
“Carolyn Hooker writes with courage, imagination, and keen insight, and the result is a haunting tale of unflinching motherly love despite often crippling powerlessness. From the first page of Leaving Edgefield, there’s an urgency in Carrie Butler’s story that will stay with readers long after the last, perfectly nuanced sentence. Hooker is a masterful, empathetic story teller and Leaving Edgefield is a triumph you’ll not soon forget.”–Michel Stone, author of The Iguana Tree and Border Child
In the shadows of early 20th-century Edgefield, South Carolina-a town steeped in tradition, hierarchy, and secrets-young Carrie Butler lived a life both ordinary and extraordinary. Born into a world that barely acknowledged her existence, Carrie was thrust into the domestic service of one of Edgefield’s most powerful families. There, her fate would become entangled with that of Strom Thurmond, a future US Senator and staunch segregationist, in ways history has long ignored.
Leaving Edgefield reclaims the voice of a woman history nearly erased. Based on the real-life mother of Strom Thurmond’s biracial daughter, this sweeping and lyrical work of historical fiction breathes life into the story of a young Black woman whose resilience becomes her legacy. From the rolling fields of Edgefield to the streets of Philadelphia, from whispered betrayals to whispered prayers, Carrie’s journey is one of unyielding spirit in the face of exploitation, loss, and silence.
Carolyn W. Hooker paints a deeply moving portrait of a woman who, though deemed invisible in her own time, now claims her rightful place in the American story. For readers of The Bluest Eye and The Color Purple, Leaving Edgefield is both a vital act of remembrance and a literary triumph-a tale of heartbreak, dignity, and the quiet defiance of survival.
ABOUT THE AUTHORCarolyn W. Hooker is a South Carolina-based writer and educator whose work explores the intersections of history, identity, and resilience. With Leaving Edgefield, she was moved to reimagine the silenced story of Carrie Butler through careful research and literary imagination, creating a work of historical fiction designed to honor a woman deemed invisible in her own time. Hooker has deep ties to Spartanburg and Charleston, grounding her work in the landscapes where this history still reverberates.

About the speaker:Dr. Megan Winton, Senior Scientist, Atlantic White Shark ConservancyAs an aspiring shark scientist growing up in northeast Florida, Megan thought she would have to travel across the globe, or at the very least the United States, if she ever wanted to study great white sharks. She had no idea they were swimming right past her every winter during the course of their southern migration. Now the Senior Scientist at the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy, a Cape Cod, Massachusetts, based nonprofit, she is leading efforts to study the species along the east coast, including the southeast, which represents the new frontier for great white research in the Atlantic. Her research uses a combination of cutting-edge technologies and creative approaches to study the movements, behavior, and impacts of human activities on great whites and other shark species. In her talk, she’ll discuss how recent scientific advances are shedding light on the secret lives of sharks and transforming people’s perceptions of this iconic species.
Our lecture series allows you to learn from the experts. With a wide range of topics from Lowcountry wildlife and history to best practices for your home and garden, there’s truly something for everyone!
