Reseña del editor:

A richly evocative, adventurous hybrid of memoir and visionary prose-poetry, it'ss a coming-of-age story as well as a meditation on mortality--and immortality--compellingly told in a singular voice. By turns poignant, humorous and hallucinatory, the book vividly recalls the author'ss experiences in the Georgia creek swamp that he extensively explored during his childhood and youth, following him into the larger world he entered as an adult and the more unpredictable landscape of his dreams and his elaborate imagination. Regional (Georgia) memoir by late gay author, posthumously published.
