Lewis Nordans fiction invents its own worldalways populated by madly heroic misfits. In Music of the Swamp, he focuses his magic and imagination on a boys utterly helpless love for his utterly hopeless fathera man who attracts bad luck like a magnet. Nordan evokes ten-year-old Sugar Mecklins world with dazzling clarity: the smells, the tastes, and most surely the sounds of life in this peculiar, somewhat bizarre, Delta town. Sugar discovers that what his daddy says is true: The Delta is filled up with death; but he also finds an endless supply of hope.
