Welcome to Braggsville ,T. Geronimo Johnson.

Welcome to Braggsville through T. Geronimo Johnson
William Morrow/HarperCollins.

Wherein do you watched more weirdness is likely to transpire—Berkeley, California, or Braggsville, Georgia? Braggsville, of course, possibly specially in case you’re coming from Berkeley. D’Aron Johnson has fled his fictional hometown to wait college in California, but he takes three of his new pals home to undergo witness to the entirely nonfictional paradox this is the “New” South he grew up in: a white, whitewashed Dixie in which it’s k to rejoice the Civil battle cuz it’s history. obviously those 4 kids can’t brook it. As severe-hearted as they are, Johnson’s writing is regularly brilliantly comic, and Braggsville is a welcome new type of southern novel.
