解説

Novelist Raymond L. Atkins offers a lighthearted change of pace in his newest book, South of the Etowah: The View from the Wrong Side of the River. In this collection of humorous essays, Atkins explores a diverse range of topics as seen from the porch of his home on the southern bank of the mighty Etowah river in northern Georgia.

From this lofty height he holds forth on holidays, parenthood, cars, home ownership, aging, travel, medicine, technology, ballet, movies, marriage, Shakespeare, dogs, cats, music, swimming pools, vintage television, nicknames, amusement parks, restaurants, school projects, language, computers, hair, bad jobs, William Faulkner, weddings, advertising, Broadway plays, yard work, hospitals, cooking, Elvis presley, moving, money, art, college, dinner theater, and a variety of other subjects.

Atkins lives and writes on a river, and the view from South of the Etowah is unique. It is funny, irreverent, wise, and well worth the trip. So come along! There is plenty of room on the porch, the coffee pot is on, and a cool breeze is blowing up from the river.
