The 20 stories in this collection are a fresh, exuberant celebration of the new American South a land of high school band contests, where good old boys from Vicksburg are reunited in Vietnam, and petty nostalgia and the constant pain of disappointed love prevail.

"Amazon Best Books of the Month, December 2010: The real excitement of a well-done fireworks production comes not so much from a single boom and flash--anybody can make a big noise--but from the way the explosions pile up on each other, building and surprising and orchestrated to awe. And so it is with a Barry Hannah story. Every sentence--every sentence, he didn't take breathers--is packed full of explosives and then set to detonate, on ..."

"Did you see his cane? The police didn't turn up nothin' at all. If somebody is drawin' a bead on you, there isn't nothin' the police can do about it.

Many of these contributors have long friendships with Welty, while others have felt her influence on their writing from a distance.
