SOURCE: A review of Off Keck Road, in Miami Herald, November 1, 2000.

In the following review, Fichtner offers a positive assessment of Off Keck Road.

Out where the four-lane highway narrows, where the malls and groomed subdivisions fade into trailer parks, canning plants and salvage yards, the little cluster of buckshot-scarred mailboxes is the landmark to watch for, the spot where you slam into low gear and turn off into Keck Road. Anyone who grew up, as this reader did, in the 1950s in a not-so-big town of Chevy-dealership and feed-store ambitions, remembers a place like this. Whatever you called it, Keck Road always meant boxy houses surrounded by dandelion yards wiggly with lean dogs and beautiful, smudgy children whose mothers did not shrink into corners when their husbands stumbled home from a double shift at the tannery or too many beers at the Walk Right Inn.
