I’m going to have to read more by her. Great short stories set mostly in lower middle class Georgia in the 80’s or so. Not uplifting, but not without humor. The title novella confused me, but that seems to be the one everyone else likes. It took me halfway through the first story to get into it, I was afraid it was going to be "look at them stupid Southerners", but they’re very Southern stories without being kitschy about it. I’m a fan.

Stories about sensible men who silently work with wood and take on stray women with scarred souls and lost children; stories about hard women, opportunistic, lost, unable to "make it" who settle for the next best.
