Summary

"For over three decades, Allan Gurganus has been heralded by readers and critics alike. Now, the beloved North Carolina author of such classics as Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All and White People has collected ten of his most powerful short stories--all of which have never appeared in a book and some of which have never before been published--into a volume that affirms his place as a quintessential Southern writer. In his characteristic style, Gurganus limns remarkable vignettes with unforgettable characters"--Provided by publisher.
