Author Event with Sarah Morris

We are very excited to host Sarah Morris for the release of her new book all about a song we all know and love.

“In Lessons from ‘Take Me Home Country Roads’ Sarah Morris examines this classic song as it illuminates a universal sense of belonging to place even as it obscures the literality of the place it names. In examining “Country Roads” as anthem, text, artifact and rhetoric, this work untangles ideas related to place, belonging, identity and pedagogy. Morris explores the song in various contexts, such as how it pertains to West Virginia geography and heritage and the diversity of these beliefs, external perceptions of the state, concepts of home and belonging, and the song as a phenomenon across different media platforms.”
