Book Synopsis



Unveiling Southern Life: Al Shifflett's Provocative Collection of Seven Tales, Filled with Religious Symbolism, Human Comedy, and Sinfulness.

Al Shifflett presents a unique anthology of short stories, beginning with the intriguing Shotgun Granny & Jesus. This collection is a deep dive into the heart of the Lowcountry, a region steeped in tradition, faith, and a unique blend of humor and gravity. Each tale is a standalone journey, yet together they form a cohesive exploration of southern life in all its complexity.

Shotgun Granny & Jesus sets the tone for the collection, introducing readers to Shifflett's distinctive narrative voice and his ability to weave religious symbolism into everyday situations. The stories that follow continue to challenge and entertain, each one a fresh perspective on the human condition.

The Motivator and The Redletter Jesus Bible delve into the intricacies of faith and motivation, while Blue Ice Patrol and Out of Egypt transport readers to different facets of southern life, each story rich with vivid characters and compelling narratives. Tree of Life and Finders Keepers, Losers Weepers round out the collection, offering poignant reflections on life, loss, and the enduring power of hope.

Shifflett's writing is both provocative and engaging, his characters are deeply human, and his stories are filled with moments of joy, sorrow, humor, and revelation. His ability to capture the essence of the South, with its unique blend of tradition and progress, faith and doubt, comedy and tragedy, makes this collection a must-read for anyone interested in exploring the human experience through the lens of southern culture.

In this collection, Shifflett has not just thrown together a series of stories; he has crafted a tapestry of southern life, each thread a tale, each tale a glimpse into a world both familiar and new. This is not just a book; it's an experience, a journey into the heart of the South, guided by a storyteller with a keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of the human soul. So, come, step into the world of Al Shifflett's stories. You may find yourself changed by the journey.
