A book signing and art display will be held on Friday, Dec. 23, 2016, from 2 – 5 p.m. Kirk Gollwitzer, author of “Illegitimate Advantage,” will be signing his novel at The Nest Artisan Market, 13 S. Trade Street, Tryon.

Artist Pam Larson from Greenville will also be there to sign the book’s cover, which she designed and created in ballpoint pen. More pieces of Larson’s work will be on display during the event as well.

 Ashley Mobley Menetre, owner of The Nest Artisan Market, invites everyone to her store in the newly renovated Missildine building. The store will be beautifully decorated and fully stocked for the Christmas season with many gift choices from all of her local vendors and artists.

The novel tells the story of twin sisters from Tehran, who take to the stage to relate their story of escaping their homeland of Iran. But what unfolds over the course of the evening leaves the audience and the world stunned.
