From the Back Cover

In this collection, Flordia's Panhandle comes alive in a way that tou risty Florida never will. These carnies, these crackers in their cement block houses, these young girls facing death, racism, poverty, pregnancy-all will float into your memory as easily and eerily as the Spainish moss surrounding them. Not only are the stories permeated with the swamps, alligators, and oppossums of panhandle Florida-they're filled with that area's soul.

About the Author

Mary Jane Ryals grew up in Florida's panhandle and now works there, teaching at Florida State University. She's also a poet, and has had both her stories and poems published in many literary magazines in the U.S. and overseas.
