Summary: A perfect cure for a longing for home
Review: I was given this book by my advisor when I graduated from High School in Atlanta and was going off to college in New York City. It is a wonderfully witty collection of memories that could be one's own. I found it to be both comical and poinent all and once and fell in love with its words right away. I highly recomend one story in particular called Native Air to anyone feeling a twinge of homesickness for the south or anywhere else.

Summary: Bailey White makes me laugh out loud as I roll in the floor.
Review: She is wonderful. I only wish I had one of her books to read every week. Ms. White makes me feel like I know her family and her kinfolks. I think she has a marvelous gift with words and I just love her books. I would recommend this book to anybody who needs to feel happier

Summary: Short stories of odd characters and their adventures
Review: This collection of short stories started without any introduction or explanation from the author of the pattern or purpose intended, not even so much as "these are unrelated stories of characters met in her travels". There seemed to be no continuity between the stories, each stood on its own. Although some were very interesting and funny, especially the "Computer School" or conveyed a message, such as "The Language of Flowers", others simply left me wondering what was the point. Most of the stories left me cold.

Summary: Bailey White is a delight!
Review: This is the second book by Bailey White, with whom readers may be familiar from National Public Radio. Ms. White's feeling for the human experience: humor, pathos, and all of the other emotions are encountered in her delicious short stories. "The Computer Class" in the book ranks as one of the funniest short stories I have ever read. This is a MUST READ
