Due to being retired and reading more, more and more books are going to my bookshelf.  My "bookshelf" or plastic container is overflowing so it's time to offer a deal on them.  Hoping to mail out some books..........

2 books for 1 credit........request one from bookshelf, PM me your choice of the second book, and also please post your choices here so others will know what has been spoken for.

There are a few audio CDs on my bookshelf.........since they are usually 2 credits, for a 2 for 1 deal;  it'll be 2 CDs for 2 credits......instead of 2 CDs for 4 credits.   I think that's fair.

This book on my bookshelf  Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by John Berendt is based on a true story that took place in Savannah, GA.   I'd heard the name of the book and the subsequent movie; but didnt place it with Savannah until we were touring Savannah.  Then I had to read the book! (I've also seen Lady Chablis, a "colorful" character from the book on Anthony Zimmerman's food show) See below for a synopsis

Shots rang out in Savannah's grandest mansion in the misty,early morning hours of May 2, 1981.  Was it murder or self-defense?  For nearly a decade, the shooting and its aftermath reverberated throughout this hauntingly beautiful city of moss-hung oaks and shaded squares.  John Berendt's sharply observed, suspensefu...  more »l, and witty narrative reads like a thoroughly engrossing novel, and yet it is a work of nonfiction.  Berendt skillfully interweaves a hugely entertaining first-person account of life in this isolated remnant of the Old South with the unpredictable twists and turns of a landmark murder case.

It is a spellbinding story peopled by a gallery of remarkable characters: the well-bred society ladies of the Married Woman's Card Club; the turbulent young redneck gigolo; the hapless recluse who owns a bottle of poison so powerful it could kill every man, woman, and child in Savannah; the aging and profane Southern belle who is the "soul of pampered self-absorption"; the uproariously funny black drag queen; the acerbic and arrogant antiques dealer; the sweet-talking, piano-playing con artist; young blacks dancing the minuet at the black debutante ball; and Minerva, the voodoo priestess who works her magic in the graveyard at midnight.  These and other Savannahians act as a Greek chorus, with Berendt revealing the alliances, hostilities, and intrigues that thrive in a town where everyone knows everyone else.

Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil: A Savannah Story is a sublime and seductive reading experience.  Brilliantly conceived and masterfully written, this enormously engaging portrait of a most beguiling Southern city is certain to become a modern classic.
