A Slice of the Watermelon Moon

"A Slice of the Watermelon Moon" is an intimate portrayal of August, the rough Jewish trucker from West Virginia and Cecil, a schizophrenic writer raised on a small family farm and living in Athens, GA. It's an unusual, authentic southern "Slice" of time. The visiting friends that show up at the party barn are at once down to earth and hilarious. August's handmade cabin in Grayberry, Georgia is the central location for a love affair that spanned several moon filled years in the Deep South. Each vignette, gathered from present to past, carries the reader on a quirky journey that's as real as a personal diary. The author invites you to look through the cabin window at this secret and scandalous relationship in the tall pine groves of rural Georgia.
