Scoop.it!
In the 2005 movie Junebug, Madeline, a Chicago art dealer travels to her husband's home in rural North Carolina to secure the singular work of a self-taught painter. The artist is an old man who speaks in a thick drawl and weaves conversationally between biblical verse and discussions of violence and scrotums.
bobbygw's insight:
NYRB has recently published a new, elegant edition of Comyns' 'The Juniper Tree'. Let's hope they publish all her work: she deserves a home forever available to us reading public, as the LoA does for its authors.
The essayist, Nathan Scott McNamara, also contributes at The Los Angeles Review of Books, The Village Voice, Vice, The Paris Review, The Atlantic, and more. He lives in Providence, Rhode Island.
