It’s May of 1972 in Nashville, Tennessee, and Ken Chaney is experiencing quite a rollercoaster ride during his last week as a student at starchy Southern-Baptist affiliated Ward College. He’s having an affair with his faculty advisor, final examinations and an honors presentation loom menacingly ahead, his car is dying and he’s losing his job, and in between a lion’s share of beer and grass he’s also up to his neck trying to prevent the love of his fractured life from marrying another man. Lesser fellows might crumble under such pressure, but Ken Chaney can take a licking like this and keep on ticking. After all, he was born and raised in mean and wicked East Nashville, so he’s seen all sorts of tough in his time. He knows what a guy has to do when the hounds of hell start nipping at his heels, and he’s just waiting for that golden day when he triumphs over the world of long odds and windmills that are evermore doing their best not to tilt.
