Crackers

Autor Roy Blount
en Limba Engleză Paperback – sep 1998
Have you ever asked yourself, Am I southern? If not geographically, then deep down, at heart? Or, if I am not myself southern, do I know people who are southern, whom I misunderstand? Is there some authority I should consult? Crackers. Without this book, you will just flail around in the shallows of Southernity, with nothing solid to hold onto. Roy Blount, Jr., puts you in touch with possums, heterosexist dancing, people named Junior, a two-headed four-armed three-legged gospel-singing man, your feelings about the Carter administration. These specifics take you out into the depths. As a character in Crackers puts it, "I don't read books about the South, but I read southern books. Hoooo, people stealing one another's wooden legs, setting fires, making tarbabies out of one another...." Crackers is a southern book.

Descriere

To get at the heart of being Southern, one should turn to "Crackers". Roy Blount, Jr., puts readers in touch with possums, heterosexist dancing, men named Junior, a two-headed four-armed three-legged gospel singing man, and their feelings about the Carter administration. "Blount is Andy Rooney with a Georgia accent, only funnier".--"Washington Post Book World".
