New Orleans Stories: Great Writers on the City | Andrei Codrescu, John Miller
Voodoo, jazz and ghosts: New Orleans is a city like no other, and generations of writers have flocked there to eavesdrop on its tales. This anthology, first published in 1992, gathers the best of these works, including Walker Percy on the strange The Moviegoer; an eerie excerpt from Anne Rice's Feast of All Saints; Truman Capote on a brush with voodoo; and Tennessee William's dazzling A Streetcar Named Desire.
