Radford University Professor Emeritus Tim Poland will speak at the library about his new novel, "Yellow Stonefly".

Tim Poland grew up in Ohio and now lives and works in the New River Valley near the Blue Ridge Mountains in southwestern Virginia. He is the author of two novels, "Yellow Stonefly," forthcoming from Swallow Press in October of 2018, and "The Safety of Deeper Water" (2009). Two earlier books are "Escapee" (2001), a collection of short fiction, and "Other Stones, Kinder Temples" (2008), a chapbook of poems. His work has also appeared in a wide variety literary magazines.
