Through a blend of voices Big Jim Bullshit, Shushubaby, and Brooklyn Bob, to name a few the musical voice of New Orleans is revealed in its varied dialects, grooves reminiscent of ragtime, jazz, and blues. The result is a look into who these folks are, their ways and beliefs, their senses of truth, and of existence itself. A novel about the joy and beauty of life in the depths, the momentum and narrative heart isn't driven by a plot it's about the trance.
"A novel that is set in New Orleans before Hurricane Katrina draws on a number of colorful characters of varied dialects to tell the story of a set of characters in the French Quarter, a story that has a musical rhythm all its own. A first novel. Original."
