Good book, period. I enjoyed it as much on my third reading as my first. Now I have to convince my Ole Miss-attending Granddaughter to read it. Both she and I were born in not-far-from-Mississippi Arkansas. My deep, deep Southern roots were stimulated plus I want her to have a feel for how things are now...and then as well.

This book is funny and clever. It is also, however, the most accurate, non-agenda-driven assessment of the state of the Mississippi Delta I've ever read. -- A Deltan and life long Mississippian.

loved the book it put me right in the Mississippi delta
