There's even a serious side (see the nonfictional account of the infamous James Boys.) Throughout this compilation - featuring many never-before published works - Nations weaves snippets of autobiography like clues in a parlor game. There is no book quite like this one, with its ribald humor, leaps of language, and loony surrealism. And, of course, many wickedly witty rhymes. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eABOUT THE AUTHOR: \u003cbr\u003eBritish-born artist, writer, singer and gospel music producer\/ researcher Opal Louis Nations was born in Brighton, England in 1941.
