O'Phelan's Stories from the Wicker Basket under this Fragile Balloon","description":"Jim Biedenharn writes in a distinctly Southern voice, a rarity in 21st century literature. Yet in his stories the reader will find neither a glorification nor a condemnation of the historical South. The author's theological awareness does not allow him to be stuck in such follies of humankind. For the characters that live in River City Ebb \u0026amp; Flow: Dr. Jas. O'Phelan's Stories from the Wicker Basket under this Fragile Balloon, human follies are only pertinent in context of redemption-or the lack thereof. In many ways this little collection of stories just may identifies Jim Biedenharn as one of the last genuine voices of Southern Literature. Grandiose? Perhaps. But the proof is in the writing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Phil Rice,Jim Biedenharn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Canopic Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/21\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.51w x 0.41d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780997169539\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJim Biedenharn is a native of Vicksburg, Mississippi, a historic town located at the confluence of the Mississippi and Yazoo Rivers-the very southern tip of the famed Mississippi Delta.
