Quote by Barry Hannah
I dont write under the ghost of Faulkner. I live in the same town

I dont write under the ghost of Faulkner. I live in the same town and find his life and work inspiring, but thats it. I have a motorcycle and tool along the country lanes. I travel at my own speed. – Barry Hannah
