I did buy this in Savannah and saw some of the locations in the book wich made reading it fun. The characters are so life like and Berendt writes them vividly. Overall is a good read. ( )This book felt like a series of vignettes about eccentrc Savannah characters. I felt it did not contain enough "story" for me. But it does make me want to see the movie. This is a piece of fiction wrapped around a single true event. Be that as it may, it is well written and entertaining This book is just so good. It's funny, full of memorable characters, and completely true. That last actually makes it even more compelling. In short, it's about the author's adventures in Savannah, Georgia, in the 1980s and all the quirky people he meets. It's also about the murder trial(s) of Jim Williams, a wealthy antiques dealer whose annual Christmas party is the height of the social scene. I was drawn in from the very first, and now I desperately want to visit Savannah and see its storied beauty. Great book...unbelievable eccentrics...UGA - the bulldog - ...murder & mayhem...all true! no reviews | add a review
