Publisher Description
REVISED: Like "Fried Green Tomatoes," this short novel explores a town's misjudgment of two spirited young women, one an insider and the other an outsider. Following 9-11, 2001, and the attacks on the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, the residents of Statenville, Georgia are edgy and eager to lay blame, suspicious of newcomers, then out pops a girl named "Normal" from a chicken truck en route to Florida. Daff, well-known in the town, feels obligated to take Normal in, and becomes involved in the town's war against all things abnormal--especially Normal.
Customer Reviews
Troubled
Read the book, found some errors, but the biggest puzzle was the ending. It doesn’t indicate the book has a sequel. It leaves you guessing about the baby and mom. It never answers the question of who drew the pictures. Just a fade to nothing.
Troublesome Creek
The story is good, the writing is great, but it ends rather abruptly.
