Noontime in the Garden of Good and Evil



There it is standing in broad daylight in the 2700 block of Texas Avenue between Jefferson and Broadway. The plaque beside the front door of the two-story brick residence identifies it as the "compound," and in the nearby garden is a statue of a girl holding two bowls aloft in a manner resembling the image that appears on the front cover of the best-selling non-fiction book Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.
