Description
Paul Theroux's Deep South explores America through the eyes of an outsider, as he travels through North and South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, and Arkansas. With his characteristic cool prose, Theroux writes of the stunning landscapes he discovers and the lives of the people he meets.
The South is a place of contradictions, where warm soul food cafes coexist with ruined grandeur and state gun shows. Theroux delves into the heart of his native country to discover a land that is both familiar and foreign.
