John Berendt: Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil

Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil
Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil is one of the best recent books I've read. The book is really a collection of really good character sketches wrapped around the story of the trial of socialite Jim Williams in the murder of his much younger gay lover. Colorful characters abound in Savannah and Berendt brings out the best from female impersonator the Lady Chablis to disbarred attorney Joe Odom to the crazy man who carries a vial of poison destined for the cities water supply. The book is excellent. The movie, starring Kevin Spacey and John Cusack and directed by Clint Eastwood, is really a must see, also.
