"Author examines the human condition"

Mr. Ernest J. Gaines: the legendary South Louisiana Man!!

Freely adapted from: Mr. Steve Bennett, San Antonio EXPRESS - NEWS Book Editor, Sunday, March 30, 2008.

"Mr. Ernest J. Gaines titled his 2005 collection of stories and essays "Mozart and Leadbelly," which is shorthand for his long career; a sort of right brain / left brain description of his approach to writing."

Amen to all that, amigos!
