Killer Diller – Clyde Edgerton (1st Edition, 1991)

Description: Killer Diller – Clyde Edgerton (1st Edition, 1991) “Good-natured North Carolina delinquent Wesley Benfield forms a controversial gospel band with his fellow halfway house inmates and falls in love in this whimsical sequel to ‘Walking Across Egypt.’” – Publishers Weekly “Killer Diller” reintroduces the main character of Edgerton’s second novel, “Walking Across Egypt”: Wesley Benfield, a young man who has been rescued and “raised right” by 81-year-old Mattie Rigsbee. In this sequel, Wesley is doing time for car theft in BOTA House, a halfway facility for small-time offenders run by Baptist Ballard University. Caring less for the souls of their charges than for the dollars that will be generated through good public relations, university administrators Ted and Ned Sears try to take advantage of Wesley and his friends’ musical talents in order to gain more endowment dollars for Ballard U. This 247-page stated first-edition copy, with dustjacket (not price-clipped), was published in 1991 by Algonquin Books of Chapel Hill. It’s in very good-plus condition, with clean pages, tight binding, and corners and spine edges that show no wear. It’s an ex-library copy, with minimal markings – a stamp on the front and rear inside endpapers, and the remnants of a due slip on the inside rear endpaper. Shipping includes U.S. Postal Service tracking service. (U.S. Postal Service Media Mail offers timely shipping at very cost-efficient rates, but delivery times may vary.
