Description
By Ellen Douglas Louisiana State University Press (Paperback, $15.95, ISBN: 080712639X, 10/2000) (Reprint Edition) In a review in the Delta Democrat Times, fellow Mississippi writer Walker Percy wrote, "Ellen Douglas attacks with unladylike power and gusto, with a style at once cheerful and sardonic, with a kind of black-hearted good humor, and with an inventiveness which puts some outlandish folk up to some wondrous doings.... She has ventured beyond the strictures of the Southern Novel [and] she wins handily and in the stretch even brilliantly."
