A Novel: Like Catfish and a Big Red Drink |
|
"Like Catfish and a Big Red Drink" is a novel for those who remember what it was like growing up in the South, and for those who never knew. I'm telling you, raising eight black children in Memphis, Tennessee during the 1940's, 50's & 60's wasn't easy. At least, that's what Momma and Daddy always say. But they did it by the grace of God and a firm hand on our rear ends if you got out of line. We are the DeVaults, a strong, close-knit family of ten, including Momma 'nem. When we moved into an upper-class neighborhood in South Memphis, most people didn't want us around. "That's too many people for a 2-bedroom house" one neighbor complained. In light of that, Momma made all of us stay in our own yard and keep the racket to bare minimum. Having only each other to play with made us very close. When you see one DeVault, you usually saw another. That's how we were raised. We went together "Like Catfish and a Big Red Drink". ISBN: 978-0-9801177-0-7. |
