Description

FranklandWith his offbeat sense of humor and down home Southern sensibility, James Whorton has been compared to luminaries such as John Kennedy Toole and Carson McCullers. He sharpens his cutting wit to a keen edge in Frankland, following the misadventures of a wannabe academic who goes hunting for a secret history and gets much more than he bargained for. John Tolley is a bumbling college dropout who yearns to become a bowtie wearing, pipe smoking historian.

With his offbeat sense of humor and down-home Southern sensibility, James Whorton has been compared to luminaries such as John Kennedy Toole and Carson McCullers. He sharpens his cutting wit to a keen edge in Frankland, following the misadventures of a wannabe academic who goes hunting for a secret history and gets much more than he bargained for.

John Tolley is a bumbling college dropout who yearns to become a bowtie-wearing, pipe-smoking historian. When he hears that Andrew Johnson's lost papers may have been preserved by an heir in Tennessee, he grabs his tweed jacket and heads south, convinced that he'll discover the key to a groundbreaking biography on the seventeenth U.S. president and the start of a respectable career.

But things start to go awry when his car breaks down in the town of Pantherville, Tennessee. Tolley rents a decrepit shack owned by a neurotic ex-con and is soon sucked into a world of cockfights, coon dogs, and the politics of Pantherville's good old boys. Surrounded by folks as eccentric as he is, including an alluringly shy mail carrier named Dweena, Tolley starts to feel at home -- even if his quest for academic glory might just prove to be a wild goose chase. Native and newcomer, highbrow and hillbilly cross paths and tangle hilariously in this wry and ribald tale.

Boyfriend liked it, however it has a weird fit
I got this for my boyfriend as he is a fan of this brand's clothes. I got him small and I am glad I did. Although it looks fantastic on him because he is him, the sweater is strangely long and has a weird tough material to it. It is not exactly soft to the touch, and it has a weird stretch. It doesn't feel like other COOFANDY brand turtlenecks he owns, so I was surprised at how stiff the material was compared to those. The color is also a bit more orange in person.

Ribbing & AComfortable Fit
I stumbled onto this brand as the sizes & sizing were very accurate. The ribbed feature is a blessing as it masks, hides, conceals stains & or body imperfections. I'm a 63 year old grandpa who greets outside in the Midwest at church 50 weeks a year. The warmth, the longer sleeve's and the high & roll up, roll down turtle neck is super cozy. The value is, it looks more expensive than it actually was, I have already ordered another in black. I am 5'8 298# with a 63 inch chest 48 inch waist fits with room to spare.

Very nice turtleneck
I bought this for my husband as a Christmas present. He loves it! He says it fits well, not to heavy and is very comfortable.
