About This Item
New York: Little Brown AND Company, 2011. First Edition - First Printing Stated . Hard Back. Near Fine/Near Fine. 6 1/4" X 9 3/4. 278 Pages. Signed by the author with black marker pen on the title page with author's signature only. Full number line. Flawless interior text pages. Georgia Bottoms may be Six Points, Alabama's finest feature - beautiful, worldly, a splendid cook and faithful churchgoer who cares for her aged mother and sells handmade quilts to her grateful neighbors. Georgia also has a discreet side business, entertaining six local gentle- men at night. Judge Barnett on Sundays, Sheriff Allred on Fridays, the doctor on Wednesdays (Mondays are Georgia's own). Each gentleman gets a night tailored to his particular tastes, each has been trained to leave a gift to help Georgia get by, and each one thinks he is Georgia's only secret lover. When Preacher Eugene Hendrix (Saturdays) decides he must confess their affair in front of his wife and the entire congregation, Georgia may be able to stop him in time. But one pin pulled out of her elaborately protected life may be all it takes to send the whole structure to hell in a hurry. Chin high, posture perfect, her Chanel handbag tucked firmly under her arm, Georgia sets out to save herself, her mama, and her particular notion of virtue from total ruin. Nothing in Six Points will ever be the same. Stepohen King said it is the funniest novel he had read in ten years.
