Synopsis
Jill McCorkle was born and raised in the small town of Lumberton, North Carolina. While growing up she frequented Holden Beach on the North Carolina coast, a location that inspired the locale in her latest novel, Carolina Moon . Carolina Moon is McCorkle's fifth novel and sixth book since the simultaneous publication of her first two novels, July 7th and The Cheer Leader , when she was just twenty-six. McCorkle's books have been translated into several languages and have earned acclaim and a loyal following. Her collection of short stories, Crash Diet , won the 1993 New England Booksellers Award. Her short fiction has appeared in numerous literary journals and magazines including The Atlantic Monthly, The Ladies Home Journal, Agni, Cosmopolitan, The Southern Review, Allure, and Gettysburg Review. McCorkle has reviewed books for The New York Times Book Review, The Washington Post, The Miami Herald, and The Atlanta Journal. Ms. McCorkle graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and earned her M.A. at Hollins College. She has taught creative writing at Tufts University and UNC-Chapel Hill, and she currently teaches at Bennington College and Harvard University. McCorkle lives in the Boston area with her husband and two young children and writes whenever she has the chance.

About A. Friendly's Books
A. Friendly's Books was founded in Downtown Overland Park, Kansas, in 1994 as a brick and mortar used, rare and out-of-print bookstore. The store is named for the original A. Friendly who, legend has it, traveled around the country to small towns and homesteads in the early days of the US carrying a sack of books on his back, or sometimes pulling a small cart filled with books to sell and trade. He often told stories to the townspeople and even taught some how to read. Today we use the internet but our love for books is the same as in the days of A. Friendly. All of our books are carefully packaged and we offer free shipping in the US. We guarantee all books to arrive as described or money back.
