Rides of the Midway: A NovelW. W. Norton & Company, 2002 M04 17 - 322 páginas "With this eruptive debut novel, Lee Durkee…has just kicked in the door of Southern literature." —Salon Meet Mississippi teenager Noel Weatherspoon: ghost-seeing insomniac, endearing dopehead, wanna-be erotic photographer, and possible Baptist faith healer. Noel, who prefers The Exorcist to Ecclesiastes, must navigate a world of Bible-thumpers, born-again Christians, and a stepfather who bears an uncanny resemblance to Billy Graham. Darkly comic and lyrically moving, Rides of the Midway introduces a formidable talent in contemporary fiction. |
