Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 425 pages. Some of the greatest storytellers of our time chronicle twentieth-century southern life.

The stories in this collection are as diverse as the region itself, yet they are all connected by a shared history and a uniquely southern strain of American language and narrative. Contributors include Truman Capote, William Faulkner, Carson McCullers, Flannery O'Connor, Katherine Anne Porter, Alice Walker, Eudora Welty, and Tennessee Williams. (SL#101/2).
