| Description |
The place is the small Mississippi town of Brookhaven, the time a few days before the Fourth of July. Carnelle Scott (known locally as "Miss Hot Tamale") is rehearsing furiously for the Miss Firecracker Contest, hoping that a victory will salvage her tarnished reputation and allow her to leave town in a blaze of glory. The unexpected arrival of her cousin Elain, a former Miss Firecracker winner (who has walked out on her rich but boring husband and her two small children) complicates matters, as does the repeated threat of Elain's eccentric brother, Delmount (recently released from a mental institution), to sell the family homestead and decamp for New Orleans. But, Carnelle perseveres, leading to a denouement of unparalleled hilarity |
