Apr. 25, 1952


Padgett Powell was born on April 25, 1952. His work, published in the New Yorker, has been described as in "the southern literary tradition." Whatever that means, we have this excerpt from his story, "Mrs. Hollingsworth's Men:" "He looked like the kind of cat who would bite you on the neck to hold you down." This quote makes me wonder if the author, who knows men, knows anything about tomcats.
