Mcintosh

McIntosh is set in the Florida town of that name lying between Gainesville and Ocala on U.S. 441. To those who visit its antique shops or its annual harvest festival in search of a past that never was, the town and its people appear bucolic, ignorant, and dull. But underneath their reticence and simple lifestyles, the citizens of McIntosh seethe with all the sexual indiscretion, religious fervor, and social turmoil of the people of the Old Testament. The characters include a healer woman trained in Miccosukee sorcery, a man who wanders the wilderness of the Ocala National Forest in search of a message from god; the owner of a feed and seed store who murders a widow woman and her black lover for spoiling his fantasy; a man who understands and practices the essential truth of fishing; a failed university professor; and the principal character, the town of McIntosh itself.Scholes, Robert is the author of 'Mcintosh ', published 2005 under ISBN 9781413790870 and ISBN 1413790879.
