Exhaustive, Invaluable Anthology
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Blount, that genius of slippery Southern prose, collects here a truly massive number of classic comedy gems concerning life below the Mason-Dixon line. The pieces range from elegantly witty to down-home scatological. Novelists, monologists, essayists, journalists, and short-story writers are all represented.
