Zusammenfassung:This literary portrait of the capital of Southern belles lettres includes illuminating vignettes of fact and fiction. New Orleans is a melting pot stirred by French, Spanish, African, and Caribbean influences. From the labyrinthine cobblestone streets of the Vieux Carré, the sombre elegance of the Garden District, and the bayous and banks of the Mississippi River to the above-ground St. Louis Cemetery, sexy steamy Storyville, and Tin Pan Alley, the Crescent City is one of the longest-running literary salons in American history. It is also a city of many contradictions, mysteries, and surprises that have been celebrated the world over. Whether born there or simply passing through, writers have been inspired by New Orleans for centuries, and, in the pages of this book, her stories are finally told.--From publisher description.
