Beskrivning
From the beloved Houston columnist comes a new trade paper edition of his popular regional bestseller. These are wise, tolerant, funny narratives, told in the graceful conversational prose that has long been Hale's hallmark. Among the many pleasures to be enjoyed here are stories about Homer the Rat; the territorial controversy over a church pew back in the old hometown; and what his mother saved instead of money. All display Hale's eye for the telling detail and enlist us in the gentle laughter of self-recognition.
