Rumor has it that she teaches the 1st grade. Frank Dobie once said, "If a story brings out truth, why let facts interfere with it?"įor all her propensity to blab the family business, Bailey White is said to be a very private person-another Southern contradiction. Surely some of these stories must be apocryphal, embroidered and embellished by a Gothic Southern imagination. Where would you put a Porsche, if you weren't planning to drive it? The car currently resides on the White front porch. He drove off to California in the titular red Porsche, which he bequeathed to his former wife on his death bed. In a story called "Porsche," White explains that, as family legend has it, he stormed out one day because he could no longer stand to look at the same coat that had been hanging on the same nail for 50 years. And whatever happened to Bailey's daddy? Well, he checked out early, enraged as much by the cluttered house as by his wife's cluttered mind.
