The Acorn Plan by Tim Mclaurin

Open The Acorn Plan and listen to its sad, comic chorus of Southern voices, and to the story of Billy Riley, a brooding, reckless young man struggling to resolve the competing claims of love, loyalty, and ambition.
"A powerful and compelling novel by a young writer who has a talent and voice all his own" -- Harry Crews
"A novel about people who work in cotton mills and eat pork chop sandwiches and are bad to get knee-walking drunk on Mad Dog 20/20 win, people who fight with knives, and hate and love like crazy and dream wild dreams. Tim McLaurin is a wonderful writer." -- Lee Smith
"The Acorn Plan stays with me, bruising my heart like the lonely memory of a freight train passing through the middle of the night." -- Louise Shivers
Tim McLaurin lives in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
