American Pop
Snowden Wright
American
Pop follows the fortunes of the Forster family. A family who
built an empire on the back of Pan Cola in Panola County,
Mississippi. By looking back and forth at the different generations
of the family, rise and fall from power and the decline of their
fortunes, the author weaves a tale of southern intrigue. I especially
liked the fact that he was able to bring the story right up to the
end of the dynasty where a long lost member of the clan gets the
chance to look back on what the previous members did and how they
suffered a decline of fortunes both in terms of business and family.
Snowden Wright has a talent for capturing the essence of the south, it positively oozes off every page, like Spanish moss blowing in the wind. He is skilled at blending fact and fiction in a way that keeps readers glued to the page and invested in the story. Plus, his descriptions of people and places leave no doubt about his skill as an accomplished writer.
Thanks to William Morrow for allowing me to read this book in exchange for an honest review.
