T. Geronimo Johnson Discusses Welcome To Braggsville

WELCOME TO BRAGGSVILLE, the latest novel from T. Geronimo Johnson, the PEN/Faulkner finalist and critically acclaimed author of HOLD IT 'TIL IT HURTS, is a dark and socially provocative Southern-fried comedy about four UC Berkeley students who stage a dramatic protest during a Civil War reenactment—a fierce, funny, tragic work from a bold new writer. A literary coming-of-age novel for a new generation, written with tremendous social insight and a unique, generous heart, WELCOME TO BRAGGSVILLE reminds us of the promise and perils of youthful exuberance, while painting an indelible portrait of contemporary America.
