In her powerfully human and delightfully humorous new collection, author Belinda Anderson takes us to fictional Hope County in the magical mountains of West Virginia, reuniting us with Twilight Dawn, the wry and mystical old quilter from her debut book of stories, The Well Ain’t Dry Yet. Having transcended this earthly realm, Twilight finds herself surveying the predicaments of Hope County’s troubled and troublesome inhabitants, including Franklin, a water truck driver who actually welcomes jury duty; Margaret, a not-as-young-as-she-used-to-be mom, who runs afoul of Foul the Guesser at the state fair; and the widowed Sadie, who helps a con artist discover that he’s a better man than he thought. Twilight yearns to mend each and every soul. But as she watches the couty’s residents weaving themselves in and out of each other’s lives, cutting up and carrying on, they surprise her by figuring out how to arrive at a better destination on their own. If she is to come to one last realization before moving on, it is this: maybe a life has to completely unfurl before its design truly can be seen.

This Social History of Bingo takes the long view on presumptions that bingo is a game rooted in the commercialization of gambling in the 1960s. It rebuffs the notion that in the 1960s commercial gambling entrepreneurs targeted women who had never previously gambled; enticing them with a new form of gambling. This work investigates whether a tradition of playing games of chance existed amongst women, and seeks to establish whether this included gambling amongst working class women, who would nowadays make up the majority of players of bingo. The nature and influence of bingo on British culture, links between bingo and criminality, the move of bingo-specific language into wider use and the potential of bingo to cause moral panics are all examined in a book that applies scholarship to a leisure pursuit that has long been treated as a something of a joke by middle-class society.
