Appalachee Red

Informationen zum Autor RAYMOND ANDREWS was born in Morgan County, Georgia, in 1934, the fourth of ten children. Leaving Georgia to join the Air Force and then study at Michigan State University, he moved to New York City in 1958 and lived between there and Europe for twenty-seven years before returning to Georgia. Andrews's novels include the Muskhogean County trilogy: Appalachee Red , Rosiebelle Lee Wildcat Tennessee , and Baby Sweet's (all Georgia). Klappentext Bawdy and sometimes horrifying, hilarious on the way to being tragic, Raymond Andrews's Muskhogean County novels tell of black life in the Deep South from the end of the First World War to the beginning of the 1960s, from the days of mules and white men with bullwhips to the moment when the pendulum began to swing. Zusammenfassung Andrews's first novel! Appalachee Red! is one of hard labor in the midday sun and sweet jukebox nights! of howling passion and gunpoint negotiations! of a mean white sheriff and of the enormous red-skinned black man who changed it all.
