Ford County - Stories
Author: John Grisham
Publisher: Doubleday, 2009
ISBN: 978-0-385-53245-7
I’ve always enjoyed John Grisham – he is what I call a “pleasant storyteller”. His stories don’t always pop, but they always have interesting characters, quirky incidents, small town life described perfectly from the Southern point of view.
Ford County allows us to meet many more characters in a short story collection. From the struggling, unhappy lawyer who runs into an unexpected windfall that will change his life to the three small town boys that venture into the big city of Memphis to help a friend out and wander way off the planned path, these stories bring these characters to life. You may not like all the people you meet here – but they will certainly interest.
I enjoyed the book and look forward to reading John’s next creation.
