Tim McLaurin was a Southern born and educated writer who eerily captured both the White & Black southern culture of the 50's 60's and 70's. He had an ingenious mentality for putting the reader in the shoes of all of his characters. However, he had a tendency to over-use regional vernacular that may hinder the readers' ability to accurately comprehend the characters' thought processes. I strongly encourage anyone interested in having all 5 of their senses tweaked to read a Tim McLaurin book. Although, I must warn you...if you are thin skinned about race-relations....be patient. Tim will not let you down but, he will not lie to you. Sometimes the good guy does not end up on top.
Started audio w/ kids on spring break, loved it but had to return to library without finishing. Definitely one to get back to. Audio narrator is hilarious.
Kate Mortons second novel and my favorite by far!
Have they made a movie of this one? Makes a good movie.
