Mary Wakefield Buxton returns with a wallop from
her best selling debut, Help! I’m Being Held Captive in
Virginia! Yet another study of life in our time, To Love a
Virginian examines whether opposites can find
happiness and fulfillment in life or whether we are
doomed to marrying our own kind.
It is the poignant story of a writer who, dubbed a
humorist, sets out to write something “really funny.” But
as the spoof of both Northerners and Virginians unfolds,
a younger brother becomes ill and dies. The writer
questions whether joy can be found within grief, laughter
among tears or hope amidst despair, and searches for
answers.
One of Virginia’s most spirited writers, she uses
provincial humor to delight her audience and to give
testimony that the highest level of human behavior in life
is to resist the universal urge to conform.
