Living and learning in Baton Rouge, 1968


I received a nice invitation today to be a guest speaker at the Louisiana Book Festival next Nov. 1 in Baton Rouge to discuss my new novel "South, America." Thinking of going back to the city where I went to grad school at LSU (government) reminded me of "The Chord of G," a personal essay I wrote for the late, great Southern Magazine back in '89.
 I had almost forgotten what life was like for me back in '68, sharing a house with a Vietnam vet and learning something important from my neighbors. You can also see "The Chord of G" and other pieces, on my author webpage, RodDavis Author.com
