A Robert Altmanesque comedy, \u003ci\u003eWelcome to Higby\u003c\/i\u003e follows the hilarious goings-on in a small town in northern Mississippi over Labor Day weekend. From mousy Carmen Valentine, whose guardian angel, Arnetta, gives her penny-pinching shopping tips, to addled old Hank Grammar, who preaches Jesus to his neighbors' pets, Higby's townsfolk have a knack for getting into -- and trouble getting out of -- outrageous situations. Blessed with an unerring eye for dead-on details, Dunn lovingly traces the eccentric and touching lives of his characters, offering an intelligent yet heartwarming vision of life in small-town America. \u003ci\u003eWelcome to Higby\u003c\/i\u003e is a Southern comical tale about simple dreams both realized and thwarted by all the complexities of the human heart.","brand":"Atria Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44300700188927,"sku":"9780743249881","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/Jacket_cb2dd72d-e6ec-4579-b977-b1365d274155.jpg?v=1746926015","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780743249881","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
