The Redneck Way of Knowledge: With a new introduction by Dorothy Allison: 0000 (Vintage Contemporaries) - Softcover
Synopsis
Combining autobiography, reporting, and the dressed-up lies called fiction, this is the uncensored personal testimony of Blanche McCrary Boyd: sixties radical and born-again Southerner; a lesbian with a highly un-P.C. passion for stock-car racing; a graduate of Esalen and kundalini yoga who now takes her altered states "raw, like oysters." "Superb."--The Nation.

Review
"Wonderful ... a lot of hard drinking, vivid insights, and belly laughs." -- People
"Marvelous ... Boyd resembles a cross between Joan Didion and Hunter Thompson, [but] her original voice makes these tales her own." -- Philadelphia Inquirer "Impressive ... superb ... Boyd writes brilliantly. [The Redneck Way of Knowledge is] the best kind of social criticism." -- The NationAbout the Author
Blanche McCrary Boyd is Professor of English and Writer-in-Residence at Connecticut College, as well as the author of four novels and a collection of essays. Her awards include a Guggenheim Fellowship (1993-1994), a National Endowment for the Arts Fiction Fellowship (1988), a Creative Writing Fellowship from the South Carolina Arts Commission (1982-1983), a Wallace Stegner Fellowship in Creative Writing from Stanford University (1967-1968), the Lambda Literary Award (1991), and the Ferro-Grumley Award (1991). She is influenced by the state she was born in, South Carolina, and her work is often set in the South where her plots focus on gender confusion.
