Dispatches from Pluto : Lost and Found in the Mississippi Delta
After visiting a friend in the Mississippi Delta, British writer Richard Grant and his liberal girlfriend decide on a whim to buy a plantation house and leave their Manhattan life behind. He goes deer hunting, juke-jointing, prison-visiting, and the list goes on. He tackles issues like racism and the worst public education in the country with a kind but straightforward stance. You’ll get great pleasure as Grant tries to unpuzzle the many mysteries of the Deep South.
