Laura da Glória Alberto Chemane Volgorde van de boeken (chronologisch)

Autobiografische verhalen waarin de Amerikaanse auteur (1980) zijn bizarre jeugd beschrijft.

The narrator, an androgynous twelve-year-old boy, idolizes his mother Sarah, a 'lot lizard', or truck-stop whore. Adopting her name, and pretending to be a girl, 'Sarah' stumbles into dangerous and fantastic worlds pocketed away in the West Virginian wilds. He hitches a ride to the famous luck-restoring Jackalope, is mistaken for a saint and must prove himself by walking on water. When he is captured by the malevolent Le Loup, his life is put in jeopardy until his cries for help are finally heard.
