Delta Pearls
Delta Peals is a compilation of "friend pictures, people
pictures, fluttering about on the coldest days when weather has
just kicked up a cloudburst of snow."
In a world where technological innovation and mass media are
homogenizing American English, Judith Bader Jones preserves the
beauty of the vernacular language distinctive to the Missouri
Delta that "mosquito infested backdrop of civilization" - and
captures the heart of people in the process of loving and
losing, being and becoming.

Moon Flowers on the Fence
Moon Flowers on the Fence is a work of reflection, back to the
easy glide of rural life, of remembering family stories with "A
spinster aunt, dry as knotted thread," supple beauty that comes
with the "blush of womanhood" and the loves of youth.
