Folly Park by Heidi Hackford E66

<p>Folly Park is a story about history, race, identity, and friendship. At its heart is a woman named Temple Preston and her old, crumbling, ancestral plantation in Virginia. &nbsp;With the discovery of long hidden, disturbing family secrets, Temple gets wrapped up in exposing these family secrets as a way to save the ancestral home, until she begins to question whether it's really worth saving.&nbsp;</p> <p>Author Heidi Hackford talks about the character she eventually grew to like, &nbsp;about the power of semantics, and about how her work at Monticello - and how people responded to it - helped shape this story.&nbsp;</p> <p>My thanks to Folly Park’s publisher <a href="https://shewritespress.com/" target="_blank">She Writes Press</a> and author <a href="https://www.heidihackford.com/" target="_blank">Heidi Hackford</a> for sharing Temple and Vee and this story full of history and surprises with me. &nbsp;I would love to hear what you think about Folly Park, reach out anytime on social media or email at <a href="mailto:tbnarrator@gmail.com"><u>tbnarrator@gmail.com</u></a></p> <p>As always, thanks for being here..
