I think you might want to try Harry Crews, since he has been linked to your husband's work as a read-alike. That is if you haven't read him yet. He is a Georgia author, whom critics claim to be the father of the dirty south genre. Another author I think can be included in this new genre is Charles Portis. My husband picks up <I>Gringos</I> every three months, just for the hell-va-it. I suggest <I>Dog of the South</I> and my all time favorite <I>True Grit</I>!<BR/><BR/>No problem, <B>SuziQ</B>! This is meant to be fun; therefor, follow your mood. :)<BR/><BR/><B>Kontan</B>, you might want to scroll through this blog for ideas, too. And, yes! Non-fiction, fiction, ANYTHING, just keep it the American South, thank you. :Dmaggie moranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02462439415973311990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20112247.post-52463876162267573942007-06-04T20:57:00.000-05:002007-06-04T20:57:00.000-05:00I'm going to give participation a shot, but will h...I'm going to give participation a shot, but will have to give some thought to my list.
