The Women on the Porch (Southern Classics Series)
"The Women on the Porch  is an impressive performance. .  ."--W.J. Stuckey"There is a sharp sense of the land, as of the people who inhabit it. . .  . The cottonwoods and the sycamores, the dew-wet brambles and the  dust-deep country road, the kitchen garden with its snap-beans tangled  and choked by the crowding morning-glory vines, the white fog from the  branch at night, and a thousand and one other touches of observed and  loved reality contribute to Miss Gordon's novel a beauty and a  naturalness. . ."--F.H. Bullock
