Harper Lee Prize for Legal Fiction

A Truman Capote story from early in his career will be published for the first time. "Another Day in Paradise" was written while the Monroeville, Alabama native was living in Sicily in the 1950s. "Another Day" is a narrative of disillusion and entrapment.

A new mural sits in the heart of downtown Birmingham, honoring the legacy of four Alabama women and putting visitors directly into their story. The public art piece, titled “Steel Magnolias,” can be spotted on the corner of 19th Street North and 10th Avenue, just across from the Birmingham Jefferson Convention Complex (BJCC).
