This Georgia girl just loves this book! John Schulz really knows how to build pictures with words. His characters are truly unforgettable and reading about them brings to mind folks I have known. Schulz' dialogue is wonderfully true to the type of character he creates. Reading this book made me want to be a part of the North Georgia life that he depicts. (I live in South GA.) I sure do hope that he has a sequel in mind because I really want to know how things turned out for Lou Ann after this part of the story ended. This is one of those books I hated to see come to an end!

This is one of the best books to read at night or on a plane. Read it aloud to someone. The chapters are short but full of humanity, humor, and humility. Life is short, don't miss this one. I loved it.

Product Description
Requiem for a Redneck is a sometimes wild, sometimes funny, and sometimes sensitive picture of redneck doings in the north Georgia mountains. The stories will make you laugh, make you cry, and make the ladies go aww. Requiem for a Redneck presents you with a collection of stories that revolve around the death of Harce. You will meet John the Plant Man, the narrator who tells the stories from an insider's point of view. You will meet Harce, the sawmill operator who can build anything, Louann, Harce's old lady; his friends Kickstand, Greg the preacher, and many more unique characters. And you will meet Bud, who is one of the greatest unheralded humorists in the redneck countryside. Requiem for a Redneck has been written with short chapters which invite the reader to move on and see what happens next. It is priced at the cost of one hour's labor for most of the characters. Without preaching, Requiem for a Redneck deals with drug and alcohol abuse and with contractual morality. The book deals with adapting to life in the modern world through the use of a set of creative coping devices. The book presents a humorous, insightful, and compellingly sensitive picture of a hidden world.
