TITO PERDUE at The Page and Palette Bookstore in Fairhope, Alabama on Saturday, December 15



Author Tito Perdue will sign copies of his novel The Fields of Asphodel at Page & Palette Bookstore in Fairhope, Alabama this Saturday, December 15 at 11am. Page & Palette is located at 32 S. Section Street in Fairhope, Alabama.

The Fields of Asphodel is the latest installment in Perdue’s chronicle of Leland Lee Pefley, the cantankerous Alabamian. This time, Lee wakes up from his death in strange surroundings that bear an uncanny resemblance to his native Alabama. After a life of misdemeanors, Lee had hope that death would bring an end to things; instead, he awakens in a very bad place full of cold weather, strange tortures, and some of history’s most hapless people. His one consolation is the opportunity to track down his beloved wife who preceded him in death.

Perdue, a cult favorite author, has been compared to writers from Faulkner to Beckett, and in The Fields of Asphodel, readers are reintroduced to one of our true literary talents—and to Leland Pefley, a truly powerful fictional creation.
