Birthday Pie is one of the most original, relevant and touching stories I have ever read. The language of Arthur Wooten puts you in the room with these incredible characters that make you laugh out loud and make you cry. The story is so compelling you will find it a quick read because you won't want to put it down until you get to the end.

If gallantry in our day is defined as facing adversity with screams of laughter, then this is the most gallant book [On Picking Fruit} I know of.

A brilliant storyteller, Arthur Wooten serves up a sweet slice of Southern life in Birthday Pie. I stayed up all night laughing and crying and falling in love with the Martindales, and hope more chapters and books will be written about these delicious characters and their secrets.

Wooten's southern family of the Martindales can sit on a family heirloom mantle along side some of the greats (Glass Menagerie's Wingfields, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof's Pollitts or the Wingos from The Prince of Tides) yet still maintain a uniqueness of the author's voice that vividly allows us to 'know' these people.
