ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek” by Kim Michele Richardson tells the story of Cussy Mary Carter, a "Blue" woman living in the remote Appalachian mountains during the 1930s. Cussy works as a Pack Horse Librarian, delivering books to isolated families in Kentucky. The novel explores themes of racial prejudice, societal rejection, and personal identity as Cussy faces the challenges of being an outsider due to her rare condition, congenital methemoglobinemia. As she navigates discrimination, isolation, and her longing for acceptance, Cussy embarks on a journey of self-discovery, resilience, and the transformative power of education.
