Toni Orrill reads an excerpt from her latest novel. Described as “Flannery O’Connor meets Steel Magnolias,” Poppy King is set in South Louisiana and highlights the sisterhood of Poppy and Sissy as they embark on overcoming life’s struggles and building family bonds along the South Coast. The story is one of love, redemption and the search for truth and meaning in nostalgic places, among beach roads and in the heart of New Orleans.
