Set in east Alabama and Florida, A Ford in a River concerns
contemporary Southerners, men and women deprived of traditional
values. Charles Rose writes of rusted harrows in a weed choked
field, a bizarre small town hotel, shush shushing pampas grass,
run-down trailer parks, and more without overindulging in local
color or reverting to Southern Gothic stereotyping. All the
characters find themselves trapped by who they are and what they
can and cannot accomplish. Resonating with dramatic detail and
psychological insight, Rose's stories are never predictable. And
his empathy is everywhere manifest.
