Now, in her stunningly accomplished first novel, she introduces us to the peculiar yet lovable people who inhabit a small town in south Georgia. Meet serious, studious Roger, the peanut pathologist and unlikely love object of half the town's women. Meet Roger's ex-mother-in-law, Louise, who teams up with an ardent typographer in an attempt to attract outer-space invaders with specific combinations of letters and numbers. And meet Della, the bird artist who captivates Roger with the sensible but enigmatic notes she leaves on things she throws away at the Dumpster (\"This fan works, but it makes a clicking sound and will not oscillate\"). \u003cbr\u003eHeartbreakingly tender, often hilarious, \"Quite a Year for Plums\" is a delectable treat from a writer who has been called a national treasure.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Knopf","offers":[{"title":"Quite a Year for Plums | Bailey White | Hardcover | 9780679445319 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks E 1784101","offer_id":67622983336088,"sku":"1784101","price":11.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/91CETEZ-4gL.jpg?v=1790957500","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/quite-a-year-for-plums-1","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
