About This Item
New York. 1998. August 1998. Henry Holt. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0805055770. 225 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Raquel Jaramillo. keywords: Mystery America Ozarks Literature. FROM THE PUBLISHER - In small Ozark towns like West Table, Missouri, what you are is where you're born. And if you're born in the Venus Holler section of town, what you are isn't much. For Bev Merridew, who can turn a trick as easily as she can roll a joint, life in Venus Holler is tolerable. For her nineteen-year-old daughter, Jamalee, a life guaranteed to be the replica of her mother's isn't good enough. With her tomato-red hair and her barely contained rage, she has plans, and they don't include Venus Holler. What they do include - indeed, depend on - is her drop-dead beautiful brother, Jason. But Jason may just be a country queer, and in the hills and hollows of the Ozarks, that is about the most dangerous thing a man could be. Into their midst comes Sammy Barlach. With too many entries on his rap sheet, he's passing through on his way to nowhere, looking to be a loser in new surroundings. Jamalee thinks he might be the muscle she and Jason need. inventory #25744 ISBN: 0805055770.
