Laura Bush is having another literary symposium, this one about Truman Capote, Flannery O’Connor, and Eudora Welty, and they will be introduced by Tom Wolfe, Bret Lott, and Elizabeth Spencer, respectively. Last year, you’ll recall, there was a huge controversy over her cancellation of a poetry event after she found out that people wanted to read poetry that wasn’t in line with her husband’s policies.
