Sort of "The Grapes of Mirth"; it's a lighthearted look at the zany antics of amoral, ignorant, stupid, inbred, deformed sharecroppers in the Piedmonts. It's a laugh riot if you think harelips are a hoot.

This book is supposedly fraught with social signifigance. However, it raises an inevitable question: is there any economic system that would make it possible for people who are this stupid to succeed in life?

Simple answer: No.
