The stories in Bobbie Ann Mason's remarkable collection read like poetic transcriptions of day-to-day life. With her keen eye and ear for late twentieth-century popular culture, Mason can render a photograph of a brightly lit supermarket or a bit of wisdom from the Donahue show. Her characters are not people from Hollywood or Cannes, but folks we might run into at a movie theater or an interstate rest area, not just in western Kentucky but all across small-town America.
In these bewildered people we see - and relate to - their often desperate quests to mark their places in the world. This special Kentucky edition of a beloved local author's work includes a new foreword by George Ella Lyon, also a Kentucky writer and a friend of the author.
