Fireflies and Magnolias - Tommy Lee Davis - Bog

A tale of ten kids raised in the Lower Ninth Ward of New Orleans during the wonder years of the fifties and sixties, this is a story of living with the pressures of war, nuclear threat, integration and human struggle--with just enough baseball, love and running barefoot in the summertime to make it worth the living. At once a timeless love story and a heart-rending crime of passion, FIREFLIES AND MAGNOLIAS rekindles the spark of childhood and the flame of the deepest love.
