Kinfolks: A West Texas Trilogy (Vol 2)

Laugh out loud funny! The “West Texas Folks” Series is a satirical, historical saga encompassing three generations of three families from West Texas from the turn of the Twentieth Century to present day. Told with the raw humor of the many characters that include: Grandma Jessie Belle; a flamboyant grandmotherly prostitute who achieved success in her profession of “running the girls” at the local truck stop. Amos; a shrewd and uneducated pioneer of cocaine trafficking that paved the route to the American northeast by networking through the brothels and truck stops up the Mississippi River into Chicago. Opal – a woman who prepares endlessly for the perfection she aspires to in life through the paper dolls she collects. Theodora, an overweight and overlooked daughter who has to pave her own way in the shadows of her sister, Genevieve. Genevieve; a socially ambitious, spoiled, young woman from the wrong side of the tracks, willing to do anything to gain the lifestyle of her dreams by marrying the “right” man. Annabelle and Wayde Hardesty; descended from Texas ranching and oil families. The Hardesty’s are hard-working, pillars of society and the parents of a son, Colton and daughter, Irma.

They face personal struggles with their only son’s homosexuality in a 1950’s and 1960’s Christian community. When Wayde’s affair with Genevieve bankrupts him he commits suicide and leaves Annabelle to pick up the pieces and restore the family’s legacy. “Kinfolks” picks up exactly where “Folks” left off and is carried through with two, parallel stories evolving simultaneously.
