Diesel, A Bookstore in Oakland is pleased to present local author and Mills College professor Cornelia Nixon as she discusses and signs her new novel, Jarrettsville, on Thursday, October 8th, at 7 p.m.

Based on true events from Nixon's family history, Jarrettsville is set in Northern Maryland, six miles below the Mason-Dixon line, where brothers literally fought on opposing sides, and former slave-owners live next door to abolitionists and freed men.
