- Summary:
- At turns lyrical, comic, and melancholy, this tale takes inspiration from its title. This Romanian expression with an Alabama twist is symbolic of the strivings of ordinary folks for the realization of their hopes and dreams. Set on a few humble blocks yet engaging many parts of the world, this Southern Jewish novel is richly American.
