Sobre este artículo
New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons, 1981. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine. 20x20x20. Signed by author. First edition. Signed & dated by author without inscription on front endpaper ('Lee Smith, Dec. 1981, Chapel Hill'). 256 pp. 8vo. Author's first collection of short stories. "Comic and observant, Smith's fourteen tales in Cakewalk introduce readers to a host of memorable Southern characters. Her protagonists include aging gossips, a soap opera-hooked housewife, a runaway teenager, and divergent sisters in various combinations. Smith's gutsy Southern women don't always triumph, but, with her sympathetic portrayals, readers gain appreciation for the merits of spirited perseverance, right or wrong, in the face of modern adversity. The characters are everyday folks with everyday problems, particularly the tensions of home and family and loneliness and connection. Smith is keenly aware of the foibles that make people so maddeningly funny but also deeply sensitive to their pain and sorrow.
