Description: 

The "half-shed half-den" where Lonnie Grinnup lives is built on "the last lost scrap of the thousands of acres which his ancestor had been master of" (74). His ancestor is Louis Grenier "the elegante, the dilettante," the "old Frenchman" after whom Frenchman's Bend is named, and whose elegant antebellum plantation house is going to decay in ten other Yoknapatawpha fictions.
