Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by John Berendt (Hardcover) – Great Condition

Description Step into the lush, atmospheric world of Savannah, Georgia, with John Berendt’s modern classic, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. Part travelogue, part true crime, and entirely mesmerizing, this narrative non-fiction masterpiece peels back the curtain on a city defined by its eccentricities and secrets. The story centers on the high-society murder trial of antique dealer Jim Williams, but it is the vibrant cast of characters—including the Lady Chablis, the voodoo priestess Minerva, and the man who walks an invisible dog—that truly brings the book to life. Berendt’s prose is sharp, witty, and evocative, capturing the sultry tension of the Deep South in a way that remains unparalleled. This hardcover edition is offered in great condition.
