Geechee Gonna Gitcha is focused on capturing the essence of the author’s native city across time. It defines a city and its people--both trying to overcome transitional times in a place where the clocks seemed to be broken. The main character is that setting—Charleston, South Carolina. Living here through the 1950’s and 1960’s was a stark difference to the city seen today. Those decades seemed to be the time when Charleston woke up and looked out of the window. We were all Geechees then. Our Geechee commonality remains in the Charlestonese inflections—and we’re losing it faster than the Wild West lost the bison.
Coming here, one would have no idea of what once was and still is. The chapters will weave through the realities, the mysteries, and the motives. They are arranged without chronology so that random chapters may be read in any order. The intent is to give a cumya or even a stunned tourist the insight to what this city represents.
