Chatting Books Online Day 63. Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans and all of the crazy characters you could come across when you would stroll the streets and frequent the bars and restaurants? I sure do and I can't wait to get back to those days. But in the meantime I am going to read stories about that eclectic cast of characters in Ronnie Virget's "Saints and Lesser Souls".
This collection of essays by Ronnie Virgets tells tales of people and places uniquely, and undeniably , New Orleans. Each story a Crescent City gem to be savored. The book has 52 essays covering topics like: Games People Play, History, Living and Dying, People Real and Not So Real, Places, Sins and Salvation, and of course Lagniappe.
I cannot help but wonder what Ronnie would have had to say about the current situation . One of the best loved story tellers New Orleans has known, he is greatly missed.
