Baby Boomers See Themselves In Southern Vapors
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Atlanta,
Georgia – Wry, poignant, witty and right on target, Southern Vapors by
Lynn Garson (CreateSpace) pulls no punches when it comes to growing up
in the privileged South. There are glimpses of her early life as an
heiress-in-waiting, the big white house like Tara, travels on a grand
scale and glamour at home. But an essential familial warmth was
missing. So we get an insider’s view of the price tag of privilege: the
constant requirement to maintain the right image at all costs and the
misery that came with it.
After a lifetime of struggle, Lynn
found her lowest points as a patient in not one but three different
mental hospitals. Her reflections on that time make it clear that in the
face of it all, Lynn maintained her dry sense of humor: “I used to
think I was unbearably unique,” she says. “Later I came to understand
that I was the quintessential Baby Boomer….by the time I thought it,
felt it, ate it, smoked it, drank it or wrote about it, most of my
generation had either already done the same or were right there with
me.” In Southern Vapors, you’ll enjoy the journey, whether you’re
laughing out loud or reduced to tears. “For my part, knowing I’m not
alone is very cheering,” she concludes. “So I have gladly traded in my
perceived uniqueness for a seat in the row next to the rest of you.”
