About This Item
From front DJ flap: "A major literary event...an astonishing first novel of the South from the Civil War to the present, in the voice of a woman who lived through it all. Lucy Marsden is the widow of the Civil War's last surviving soldier; she is now half-blind, ninety-nine years old, locked into a charity home, and very talkative."
