Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil Paperback / softback
by John Berendt
Paperback / softback
Description
Published for the first time in flipback - the new, portable, stylish format that's taken Europe by storm. Genteel society ladies who compare notes on their husbands' suicides.
A hilariously foul-mouthed black drag queen. A voodoo priestess who works her roots in the graveyard at midnight.
A morose inventor who owns a bottle of poison powerful enough to kill everyone in town.
A prominent antiques dealer who hangs a Nazi flag from his window to disrupt the shooting of a movie. And a redneck gigolo whose conquests describe him as a 'walking streak of sex'. These are some of the real residents of Savannah, Georgia, a city whose eccentric mores are unerringly observed - and whose dirty linen is gleefully aired - in this utterly irresistible book.
At once a true-crime murder story and a hugely entertaining and deliciously perverse travelogue, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil is as bracing and intoxicating as half-a-dozen mint juleps.
