Sarah de Jt Leroy

Sarah

Autor Jt Leroy
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 aug 2016
'Deft and imaginative' New York Times

'Full of West Virginian folklore and miracles, at times Sarah reads like a fairy story. But it's also about abuse, addiction, and the pain of motherly rejection: a beautiful, scary, sad and funny book' the Face

'Sarah has a strong seductive quality, and it is impossible to forget' New Statesman

'Incredible, very moving, very sad and very beautiful' PJ Harvey

'Sarah is surprising, upsetting, offensive, and fun. It's everything a good read - or good sex for that matter - should be' Chuck Palahniuk, author of Fight Club

'Extraordinary. LeRoy writes with astonishing flair and confidence' Sunday Telegraph

By turns exhilarating and shocking, magical and realistic, Sarah brings urgency, wit, and imagination to an unknown and unforgettable world.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Sarah never admits that she’s his mother, but the beautiful boy has watched her survive as a “lot lizard”: a prostitute working the West Virginia truck stops. Desperate to win her love, he decides to surpass her as the best and most famous lot lizard ever. With his own leather mini-skirt and a makeup bag that closes with Velcro, the young “Cherry Vanilla” embarks on a journey through the Appalachian wilds, dining on transcendental cuisine, supplicating to the mystical Jackalope, encountering the most terrifying of pimps, walking on water, being venerated as an innocent girl saint—and then being denounced as the devil. By turns exhilarating and shocking, magical and realistic, Sarah brings urgency, wit, and imagination to an unknown and unforgettable world.
