About The Book
Dont Start Me Talkin’ is a comedic road novel about Brother Ben, the only remaining True Delta Bluesman, playing his final North American tour. Set in contemporary society, Brother Ben’s protege Peter narrates an episodic ‘last ride,’ laying bare America’s complicated relationship with African American identity, music, & culture & like his hero Sonny Boy Williamson once sang, Peter promises “I’ll tell everything I know.”

“Tom Williams’ Don’t Start Me Talking reminds me of why I started reading in the first place — to be enchanted, to be carried away from my world and dropped into a world more vivid and incandescent. Here is a heartfelt and irresistible novel about the Last True Delta Bluesman, Brother Ben, and his steadfast harp player, Silent Sam. Williams handles this ironic tale of the Blues, race, pretense, and life on the road, with intelligence, grace, and abiding tenderness. Read this remarkable and exhilarating novel, friend, and I promise you’ll start reading it slowly so it won’t ever end.”
— John Dufresne, author of four novels including Louisiana Power and Light, and Deep in the Shade of Paradise.
“A master storyteller, Tom Williams enters the living history of Delta Blues and emerges with his own thrilling tall tale, alive with American music, American legend, American heart.” —Matt Bell, author of In the House upon the Dirt between the Lake and the Woods
