pp. 91, SIGNED by the editor, “This is an altogether engaging collection of ruminations on early New Orleans writers — George Washington Cable, Grace King, Lafcadio Hearn, and Kate Chopin — as well as three prolific twentieth-century authors who called the Crescent City “home” at various times: William Faulkner, Tennessee Williams, and Walker Percy. In the book’s final essay, Lewis P. Simpson reflects on the history of New Orleans as a literary center, giving special emphasis to Percy’s The Moviegoer and John Kennedy Toole’s A Confederacy of Dunces.”
