About
Love in a Dry Season describes an erotic and economic triangle in which two wealthy and fantastically unhappy Mississippi families, the Barcrofts and the Carrutherses, are joined by an open-faced fortune hunter from the North, a man whose ruthlessness is matched only by his inability to understand the people he tries to exploit and his fatal incomprehension of the passions he so casually ignites.

"With impeccable detail, Foote delves into the moral decay of the American moneyed class. Tom Parker's performance lends an amused presence to Foote's scenario. Parker precisely captures Jeff and Amy's pretense of virtue, the Major's disdain for those he considers below him, and the fading values of the next and future generations."
