The Redneck Way Of Knowledge by Blanche Mccrary Boyd
This intoxicating book which combines autobiography, reporting, and the dressed-up lies we call fiction, has been an underground classic since its original publication. It is the uncensored, wildly funny personal testimony of Blanche McCrary Boyd, sixties radical, born-again Southerner, a lesbian with an un-PC passion for skydiving and stock-car racing, a graduate of kundalini yoga who now takes her altered states raw like oysters.' Impressive and superbly written.'
Boyd, Blanche McCrary: - BLANCHE McCRARY BOYD has taught at Connecticut College since 1982. She has written four novels--Terminal Velocity, The Revolution of Little Girls, Mourning the Death of Magic, and Nerves--as well as a collection of essays, The Redneck Way of Knowledge. Among the awards Boyd has won are a Guggenheim Fellowship, a National Endowment for the Arts Fiction Fellowship, a Creative Writing Fellowship from the South Carolina Arts Commission, and a Wallace Stegner Fellowship in Creative Writing from Stanford University.
