Mark Childress diskuterer Georgia Bottoms.
Georgia Bottoms is known in her small community of Six Points, Alabama, as a beautiful, well-to-do, and devoutly Baptist Southern belle. Nobody realizes the family fortune has disappeared, and a determinedly single woman like Georgia needs a discreet means of income. In Georgia’s case, it is six well-heeled lovers, none of whom knows about the others. But when the married preacher who has been calling decides to confess their affair in front of the whole congregation, Georgia takes drastic measures to stop him. With Georgia Bottoms, Mark Childress displays his unmistakable skill for the hilarious and absurd to reveal the workings of the human heart. Mark Childress was born in Monroeville, Alabama, and is the author of six novels, including Crazy in Alabama and One Mississippi, and three books for children. (jasbro)… (mere)
