One of the most accurate descriptions of New Orleans characters I have read. It is right up there with Confederacy of Dunces in my book. If you live in New Orleans when you read this book you know the characters as much as sometimes you wish you didn't. It is dark and twisted but so are the stories of many transplanted New Orleanians who chose to stay here because there is a certain tolerance for a style of living that isn't acceptable anywhere else.

I agree. I live in New Orleans and the characters ring true. Although the movie (A Love Song For Bobby Long) doesn't really follow the book, I also enjoyed it.

I haven't read the book yet, but just saw the movie. It was kinda ok, but too much Jesus stuff. Now I wonder, if there's a bunch of religious ramblings in the book, because if there is, i won't bother to read it, because it is irrelevant subject to me.
