Description
About the Book
Ten stories of superb daring and force span the Southern Gothic tradition. Mark Richard has three stories featured in Esquire.Book Synopsis
With a distinctive and original voice, Mark Richard's stories capture characters on the fringe of society, and illuminate the goodness at the heart of their Southern, down-and-out lies.

In these ten stories, Mark Richard, winner of the 1990 PEN/Ernest Hemingway Foundation Award, emerges as the heir apparent to Mark Twain, Flannery O'Connor, and William Faulkner.About the Author
