CANE RIVER

QUIT YOUR JOB AND PURSUE YOUR DREAM!

Lalita Tademy walked away from a high-profile job in the corporate world to research four generations of her family history, something that had long fascinated her. This passionate research was the basis for her novel CANE RIVER. We bet many of you have fantasized about quitting a job to pursue a dream.
