From the Publisher:
"A mighty first novel, told with cinematic grip...Gautreaux himself takes the next step in the moody, sweet dance of southern literature." GQ
About the Author:
"A smartly turned-out first novel, about the push and pull between a young Louisiana couple, that holds you snug and won't let go...[an] A." --Entertainment Weekly
"Marries the power of a first novel with the wisdom of a second. This is one of those books about which you mumble, halfway through, 'Hey, I'm happy I'm reading this.'...The rippingest novel of the year, with writing that dances and swells like a jitterbug on a hot skillet." --Donald Newlove, The Philadelphia Inquirer
"Gautreaux chronicles the Louisiana landscape with loving precision and insight. Every sound, every smell, is just right....This is both an elegy for a disappearing way of life and a celebration of enduring values." --Susan Larson, The New Orleans Times-Picayune
Tim Gautreaux is a professor of creative writing at Southeastern Louisiana University.
