“Venable studies the world about him. Yes, he writes about nuttiness, but he is an appreciator, indeed a lover, of people and place. . . . Spontaneous joy leaps from the page. I would rather be in Hell with my back broken than spend a day fishing, but Venable almost seduces me into wanting to spend time in a bass boat—listening to him.”
