For those people who never shared a joke with Willie Mason, never heard one of his stories or helped him cook or watched those long fingers ignite a keyboard, well, this book is your last chance, unfortunately. Don’t ignore it. For those of us who were his friends and admirers, this memoir is a gift and a revelation, with literally hundreds of grace notes where we can hear his voice and see him grinning. -----Hal Crowther Author of “Cathedrals of Kudzu,” “Unarmed But Dangerous” Wilton Mason’s novel of summers spent in the small town of Nubbin Ridge, South Carolina, glows with affection. Touching, occasionally dark, and often funny, these stories of his extended family of aunts and cousins unfold at a time when wagons and automobiles shared rough country roads, when blacks and whites lived and worked together while customs and laws kept them cruelly separate, when a man could impress a young girl into a lifetime of servitude under the guise of marriage.
