Jamin answers “Do you need to read the earlier books in...”

Carinne Gee asked this question about Hannah Coulter:

Do you need to read the earlier books in this series to enjoy this book?

Jamin No, but you will get more out of it if you read at least Jayber Crow first. That way, you will gain an understanding of The Membership of Port William…moreNo, but you will get more out of it if you read at least Jayber Crow first. That way, you will gain an understanding of The Membership of Port William whose lives intersect so intimately throughout all of Wendall Berry's stories of Port William. A Place On Earth is another good one to read first as the Feltner's play a large role in that book and they are also intricate in Hannah Coulter's younger years.(less)
