À propos de cet audio
Margaret Price, award-winning writer and recipient of the Kentucky Arts Council's Al Smith Fellowship, joins host Kate Savage to discuss her new novel Where Stillness Speaks, inspired by decades of research into the mystical world of Kentucky’s Shaker communities. Margaret shares the story’s origins, from a chance encounter with a local storyteller to deep dives into Shaker journals and the secrets of Pleasant Hill. She reflects on the Shakers’ reverence for stillness, radical forgiveness, and their belief in things unseen—including visions, female divinity, and sacred places hidden in the Kentucky landscape. The conversation traces both Margaret’s personal journey and broader themes of healing, faith, and the enduring power of history, offering listeners a window into the novel’s richly layered narrative and a heartfelt invitation to experience the wonder of Shakertown for themselves.
