...often-belittled, sometime-banned (still taboo in Massachusetts) bestselling (more than 8,000,000 copies) novel, God's Little Acre, earthy Novelist Erskine Caldwell hopscotched between TV appearances, radio talks and press interviews. Once an oversexed tale about Georgia crackers, the tidied-up movie version will glow with the Motion Picture Association of America's seal of purity. Says onetime Georgia Cracker Caldwell: "Why not?

...while studying at the Beaux-Arts. He painted sin in the form of prostitutes, evil in the faces of dishonest judges, misery in the eyes of clowns-and finally he depicted faith and goodness in Christ. He expressed himself in paint so thick that at times it seems to glow like stained glass, at other times burns against the black outlines like live coals.
