Uniquely adept at capturing the idiomatic poetry of his native South, Linney maneuvers with equal grace through the vernacular of New York's contemporary intelligentsia and the voices of a wide range of historical figures. ..".one of our most perceptive chroniclers of the folkways of rural America, finding humanity and nobility in the most remote of places."--Mel Gussow, "The New York Times"
Okay, so I've only read a third of this book: "F.M." and 2. They were both fantastic. "F.M." was recommended to me by a theater professor and 2 was recommended to me by a poetry professor, and of all the things anyone has ever told me to read, these are two of my favorites. I highly recommend them.
