- W243142022 abstract "In course of his brief career, Raymond Andrews (1934-1991) published a cycle of three novels detailing modern social history of fictional Muskhogean County, Georgia. The biographical details of Andrews' life parallel those of several of his male and female protagonists, although larger-than-life characters of his fiction are clearly imaginative creations, not recording, of author's experience. Born of sharecropper parents in east central Georgia near town of Appalachee, Andrews experienced agrarian poverty and intensely segregated society of rural Georgia during 1940s and 1950s. Like Blue Thompson in Appalachee Red, Andrews stepped out of this limiting environment, first through military service and then by attending Michigan State University. Following college, he worked at a succession of jobs, as stockroom clerk, as U.S. Postal employee, and as an employee of KLM airlines in New York. Out of his sharecropper childhood Andrews drew an appreciation for oral tale and the love of a good story, as he once stated. The settings, knowledge of farm and small-town life, realistic depiction of work and domestic routine, and most importantly intricate sense of racial relations in pre-Civil Rights South are drawn from Andrews' early experience in Appalachee. Andrews' style and viewpoint are uniquely original, but they are drawn from actual experience of ordinary people whom he knew intimately. Perhaps no other recent writer has described as bluntly and realistically system of racial repression in rural South prior to Civil Rights era. Centering social history on a limited group of residents of Appalachee, Georgia, a predominantly black town eighty-four miles northeast" @default.
