Snakewoman of Little Egypt » (Unabridged CD)

Robert Hellenga was educated at the University of Michigan and Princeton University. He is a professor at Knox College in Galesburg, Illinois, and the author of the novels The Sixteen Pleasures, The Fall of a Sparrow, Blues Lessons, Philosophy Made Simple, and The Italian Lover.

A winning new novel from the bestselling author of The Sixteen Pleasures—-whose engaging, emotionally true characters could be right at home in the stories of Alice Munro or Bobbie Ann Mason.

Don't start reading this book if you've got a dinner party coming up in the next few days, or a committee meeting or a golf game. You'll be calling people up with fake excuses and feeling bad about yourself—at least that's what happened to me…Snakewoman…makes no claim at all to being a great American novel, only a wonderful one.
