My Heart Is a Snake Farm 
By Allan Gurganus, read by Barbara Schade

What happens when a retired grammar-school librarian meets up with a
devilishly handsome roadside attraction impresario? Fireworks!

Allan Gurganus has been described as "the rightful heir to Faulkner and Welty."
He is best known for his novel, "Oldest Living Confederate WidowTells All," which spent eight months on The New York Times bestseller list.

How Was It To Be Dead?  
By Richard Ford, read by Ron Schade

Frank Bascomb is cruising along in a blissfully happy second marriage when he
and his wife are blindsided by a literal reincarnation from her past.

Richard Ford's trilogy--"The Sportswriter," "Independence Day" (the first novel ever to win both the PEN/Faulkner Award and the Pulitzer Prize), and "The Lay of the Land" (selected by the New York Times as one of the five best novels of 2006)--is the crowning achievement of one of America's greatest living authors. "How Was It To Be Dead" was excerpted from The Lay of the Land as a short story in
The New Yorker in summer of 2006.
