Books by Bobby Evers

Airmail and Chocolate Pie:
Back to Boonetown

Author Bobby Evers embraces his southern roots and his hometown in this new collection of essays. These stories cover almost everything from the value of a well-timed hissy-fit to the genius of the Magic Eraser. Just as in his previous books, being able to laugh about the absurdities of life with family and friends is at its core. And the author still finds time to highlight some more serious moments, like. One in the tender telling of his discoveringy of a dusty duffle bag full of airmail letters, the courtship correspondence of his beloved parents.

Death and Ham:
Life Is A Real Trip

Bobby Evers never takes himself—or the world—too seriously. Death and Ham: Life is a Real Trip offers twenty-three new essays that weave together the funny and tender aspects of life, death, and the world around him. The flair for storytelling that Evers premiered in his first book (Shoes and Cheese: The Boonetown Chronicles) is alive and well in this follow-up that travels beyond Boonetown, a journey full of interesting people and heart-felt discoveries. He even lets the reader glimpse his own apprehensions about turning sixty—while also revealing that he’s not too worried about not being the most tech-savvy one at the office. Meet some of his favorite people, and some of the most outlandish people he’s ever met. Death and Ham is a fun, wacky, sometimes-nostalgic journey that may leave you a little wistful for the past, and will surely lend you some laughs for your days ahead.

Shoes and Cheese:
The Boonetown Chronicles

Boonetown is a small southern town with more limousines than taxis, more buggies than bicycles and more church signs than street signs. You’ll meet the ladies who lunch and the men who drink morning coffee; the museum curator who keeps the dinosaur egg in the bank vault and the woman who runs the local tv station out of her garage. Through each story, you’ll get to know the author, too, as he takes us on this journey through his hometown.

Ramblings of a Big-headed Storyteller

Ramblings is a new compilation of favorite stories from my two books, Shoes and Cheese: The Boonetown Chronicles and Death and Ham: Life is a Real Trip. Also included are several new, previously unpublished stories. You’ll get a good taste of all the wacky characters in the small southern town, Boonetown, as well hear the author’s humorous takes on travel, design, and aging. It’s a fun trip south with lots of laughs along the way.
