Beschreibung
We're of the true South and we appreciate our stories. We are practiced listeners and weavers of words. Everybody here has a story and is the story. "e;The Suburbs of Scutchalo"e; brings together the humor of a place and captures the essence of a region both long forgotten and richly remembered through stories passed around and nourished by generations living in this tiny corner of Mississippi and its wind-blown placing between Vicksburg and Natchez and closeness to Jackson. The author uses the vernacular of the region to convey the oral history of a people who faced hard times with resilience and humor. History written down already draws out ample yellow fever, war, all manner of pestilence, lost fortune, and a hundred sorry states. The intent of "e;The Suburbs of Scutchalo"e; is to revel in the absurd moments and stories arising in time to soften a difficult sunrise.
