Leaving Cold Sassy: The Unfinished Sequel to Cold Sassy Tree Paperback - 2007
by Olive Ann Burns
Eagerly awaited by the millions of devoted fans of "Cold Sassy Tree," this novel is the unfinished tale of Will Tweedy and the young woman who captures his heart. Before her death in 1990, Burns expressed her wish that the 15 chapters she had written of Wills story be published as they are here.
Summary
Anyone who came under the spell of Olive Ann Burns’s classic novel Cold Sassy Tree will delight in Leaving Cold Sassy, which returns to the story of the unforgettable Will Tweedy. In 1917, twenty-five-year-old Will now faces the complexities of adult life. He grapples with the influences of the modern world on his cherished Georgia hometown, which has recently been renamed Progressive City, and he finds his wife-to-be in a feisty young schoolteacher named Sanna Klein.
Olive Ann Burns had completed fifteen chapters of this novel by the time of her death in 1990, and she expressed her wish for them to be published, as they are here, with her notes for future scenes. In addition, Olive Ann’s longtime editor and friend, Katrina Kenison, leaves us with an appreciative reminiscence of the beloved author and the legacy she left behind.
