Hub City and Converse
College invite you to a
special evening of literature and goat cheese tasting Wednesday, Nov. 14 at 7:30
p.m. in the Showroom at Hub-Bub as we celebrate The Year of the Goat: 40,000 Miles and the Quest for the Perfect Cheese,
a new book by New Yorker-turned-dairy farmer Margaret Hathaway, who will be
here to read and sign. This is a free event and features the products of Split
Creek Farm of Anderson, SC.

Part food memoir and part picaresque travel narrative, The Year of the Goat chronicles
Hathaway's journey across 43 states to find "the perfect cheese" and start a
new life with her husband out in the country. One of the dairies that most
impressed Hathaway was Split Creek Farm of Anderson, SC, a Grade A Dairy that
has been featured recently in Southern
Living magazine. So we have invited them to come to Spartanburg with their wide array of goat
cheese products, including feta, fromage, fudge and soap. These will be
available for sale at the event.
Author Margaret Hathaway will read from her new book and
sign copies afterward. Year of the Goat
was published by Lyons Press in August 2007.
