It is absolute ballad put to page.” ―Southern Living\n\nLewis Nordan’s fiction invents its own world--always populated by madly heroic misfits. In Music of the Swamp, he focuses his magic and imagination on a boy’s utterly helpless love for his utterly hopeless father--a man who attracts bad luck like a magnet. Nordan evokes ten-year-old Sugar Mecklin’s world with dazzling clarity: the smells, the tastes, and most surely the sounds of life in this peculiar, somewhat bizarre, Delta town. Sugar discovers that what his daddy says is true: “The Delta is filled up with death”; but he also finds an endless supply of hope.\n\nAn ALA Notable Book\nMississippi Institute of Arts and Letters Fiction Award\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1565120167\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1565120167.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Nordan, Lewis\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43358074798141,"sku":"BVV.1565120167.VG","price":6.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/1565120167-0.jpg?v=1784246688","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/music-of-the-swamp-front-porch-paperbacks","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
