HOW TO DEAL WITH CANCER, LOVE, LOSS, ADDICTION, AND DEATH IN THE
SOUTH, WITHOUT GOING COMPLETELY BAT-SHIT CRAZY. The more
clairvoyant amongst the citizens might have seen the plague coming.
The town's street design, after all, told the story: had the roads
of Carbondale, Arkansas been the constellation lines between stars,
reaching with the stretch of their potholes and paint to the homes
of those infected, they would have told the story of the tripartite
battle between Hercules, Hydra, and Cancer itself. On Carpentry is
dually a comedy and tragedy about a mysterious outbreak of
pancreatic cancer in Carbondale. Like all Southern stories, the
novel is replete with crazy old ladies, renegade street ministers,
and frustrated lemonade salesmen. There is cocaine. There are
Easybake Potatoes. Such are the Confederate flags of our time,
flapping in the cool, cancer-ridden, Southern wind.
