Side By Side: A Patchwork Portrait of My Southern Family
No moonlight and magnolias in this southern family portrait. Just moonshine and monkeys, a houseful of kids, some unusual living arrangements, a businessman turned Baptist preacher, and a patient woman straight out of Proverbs 31, holding it all together with love running over! From hilarious to heart-rending, this collection of essays is inspired by the true experiences of my grandparents and their eight children growing up in Atlanta from the 1930's and into the 50's. Personal observations and interviews explore the close-knit bond they have maintained through happiness and hard times. You are invited to visit a place in their hearts where acceptance,sharing and friendship take a front seat to material comforts. Meet the Guy Wallace family, and discover how forgiveness, hard work, and a sense of humor can not only compensate for a multitude of eccentricities, it can create a lasting heritage of unconditional love.
