Press Reviews
"His dialogue is lively, fluent, flavorful: He is particularly good at rendering, to comic effect, the sound of stupid people taking themselves more seriously than they deserve."
— Village Voice. ”Ketron's command of character and speech is extremely accurate. New York Daily News
"An exuberant, captivating examination of coming of age in today's South which, in the words of The New York Times, “…captures its youthful characters at that precise moment when their adolescent fantasies begin to fade into the morning-after realities of adulthood.” “This study of a group of young Southerners backing into maturity has fresh observation, sharp characterization and robust humor."
