Ghost Swamp Blues
“The first line in Ghost Swamp Blues will suck you in like a swampland – and you’ll want to go into a dark water of a book that seems to have been written with ink that is equal parts honeysuckle nectar and cottonmouth venom. Laraine Herring is a consummate craftswoman and a down-home boogie beat story-teller. She’s a credit to an old and demanding lineage.”
—Mary Sojourner, author of Going Through Ghosts
“Ghost Swamp Blues is a marvel. With gorgeous, incantatory language, incandescent with detail, Laraine Herring will show you the South as you’ve never seen it before.”
—Gayle Brandeis, author of Delta Girls

Anyone who writes—or wants to—will find this book as essential and inspiring as breath."
—Gayle Brandeis, author of Fruitflesh: Seeds of Inspiration for Women Who Write
