smack dab in the middle of disfunction junction

Oral HistoryOral History by Lee Smith
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A tale of generations of mountain folk, told in multiple character point of view and using the narrative style of Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury. Interesting inside insights into a family living pretty much smack dab in the middle of disfunction junction. This story has the feel of authenticity and real family history, and with some name changes, probably applies to a multitude of families, including my Missouri roots. A good read.
