The Trouble with Grits Phyllis Pittman

A 2017 Faulkner Finalist, The Trouble with Grits visits a mid-century small Mississippi town, its Old South culture, customs, and rarely met expectations. It begins in a time when young ladies in the South were supposed to do nothing more than get married, produce offspring, and can tomatoes-successfully and in that order. But times, they are a changin'. With the skillful wielding of her pen, humorist Phyllis Pittman makes us a part of the family and community grappling with the changing times. Liberal doses of humor, pearls of wisdom from the most unlikely places, and unforgettable characters weave a captivating narrative that merely whets your appetite for more!
