Bookman

  • Used Book in Good Condition

Selling books door to door in small towns in Mississippi after dark was no easy job in 1965, but Phil Lazar got good at it. His immature redneck bad behavior leads to hilarious hijinks and harsh consequences until that night in the Memphis jail when there was no one else to call but the man he'd been running from all along. The civil rights struggle was in the news that year, but the twist that leads to Phil's redemption tears open stereotypes of black/white interaction to show a much more nuanced cooperative relationship that underpinned commerce and politics in Memphis; then and now.  Read about the Mid-South as it was, and is, and could be.
