JUNIOR RAY
a novella by John Pritchard. Published By The NewSouth Books
“This writer knows the country whereof he speaks, its dialect, its mores and folkways. But this is not sociology. It is primitive fiction of the sort one rarely sees. More's the pity. Underneath this violent language and narrative, there is a sweet truth. It deserves to be read.”—Harry Crews, author of The Mulching of America and Celebration
“Junior Ray runs a belly laugh per page. When Junior Ray, a deputy sheriff who makes Flem Snopes sound cultured, sets out to track down a maniac loose in the Mississippi Delta he proves to be more demented than his prey. Like his protagonist, John Pritchard's novella is outrageous and ribald, a revolt against the literary school of manners and a ride that will take Southern Gothic to new extremes.”—Curtis Wilkie, author of Dixie: A Personal Odyssey Through Events That Shaped the Modern South
