Praise for James Wilcox:
‘Wilcox is a highly polished comic performer.’
Observer
‘Wilcox has a sophisticated control of pace, his humour the chill of home truth, and his squibs at the expense of small-town America are rarely off-target.’
Jim Crace, TLS
‘It’s not easy to write a really original novel... Yet Wilcox manages to do just that in his very funny book, MODERN BAPTISTS.’
Daily Telegraph
James Wilcox is the author of eight novels, including North Gladiola, Miss Undine's Living Room, Guest of a Sinner, and, most recently, Heavenly Days. He is Robert Penn Warren Professor and director of creative writing at Louisiana State University and lives in Baton Rouge.
