Caldwell Novel Sparks Sex Race Violence on Island
A Mississippi River island tale by Erskine Caldwell centers on a camp-out fishing trip organized by Guthry Henderson for his nephew Steve. Complications arise as Troy Pickett provokes violence and sex, a mulatto named Duke Hopkins becomes entangled, and a white nymphomaniac enters the scene. Critics call the plot contrived and the characters unreal.
