Dramatization of "The Manor"
Diana Heinlein and David Houston will read selections from Mac Griswold's The Manor, an absorbing and startling history of Long Island's mysterious island, presented as a radio newscast drama with sound effects from 300 years of American music and backgrounds.
The Long Island Reads selection for 2014, The Manor is the biography of a uniquely American place that has endured through wars great and small, through fortunes won and lost, through histories bright and sinister - and of the family that has lived at the manor since its founding as a Northern slave plantation three and half centuries ago.
