About this listen

A Creole beauty. Eccentric sisters and a black rose. One granny woman and a red button. Church suppers and bingo nights. A poet out of his element. Dreams of Mexico. The shadowy world of thoroughbred horse racing.

If the Creek Don't Rise is a collection of hard-used characters, tangled relationships, family angst, and fortitude. Step into the Deep South and experience the lives and hardships, hopes and dreams, of folk who have nothing except grit - and sometimes love - as their currency. Eighteen tales and six postcard vignettes make this collection a skillful and moving exploration of the commonplace, the hidden, and the unforgettable.
