Southern Folk - A Kidnapping on the Boulevard

In RL Rast's brilliantly inventive debut novel, SOUTHERN FOLK - A KIDNAPPING ON THE BOULEVARD, Alabama housewife, Alice Conner, escapes a Siberian gulag and makes a dash for freedom. Free of the past and all restraint, and especially her husband, Ted, she blossoms into Alexandra Primakov, the Madwoman of the Tundra, and leads an army of pitchfork wielding peasants on a rampage across Siberia, in an unpredictable literary spoof that spans the globe as the world rushes toward the abyss. RL Rast's SOUTHERN FOLK follows the residents of posh Toff Boulevard in the contemporary American South. From the Alabama courtrooms and country clubs to the resort towns of the gulf coast, SOUTHERN FOLK bends reality in an unpredictable journey down the rabbit hole of the imagination to a world of unforgettable characters and settings.
