world
of
Bailey
White.

aunt
Belle

to
see
her
bellowing
pet

uncle
Jimbuddy
may

with
his
knack
for
losing
pieces
of
himself.
Most
of
all,
you
may
succumb
utterly
to
the
charms
of
Bailey's
mama,
who
will
take
you
to
a
juke

so
raunchy
it
scared
Ernest
Hemingway
or
tuck
you
into
her
antique
guest
bed
that
has
the
disconcerting
habit
of
folding
up
on
people
while
they
sleep.
White's
indelible
vignettes
of
Southern
eccentricity
have
entranced
millions
who
have
heard
her
read
them
on
NPR.Mama
Makes
Up
Her
Mindis
as
sweetly
intoxicating
as
a
mint
julep
and
as
invigorating
as
a
walk
in
White's
own
overgrown
garden.
