The Rooster Trapped in the Reptile Room
"Everything I have to say about race and religion and politics is in the novels," declares Barry Gifford. The Rooster Trapped in the Reptile Room gathers generous portions of all thirteen novels and novellas, as well as first-person essays, generous helpings of poetry, journalism, and a new interview with the author. The broad contours of an episodic output emerge—a full-length view of the freaks and freakish incidents that populate Gifford’s unique human comedy. A world, as Lula, the author’s favorite of all his characters, reflects, "wild at heart and weird on top." The Rooster Trapped in the Reptile Room provides essential reading for anyone after the soul of American writing.

Probing into the murder of Susan Fontaine, the wife of her client, wealthy real-estate developer Whit Fontaine-the primary suspect in the case-Wendy fights to prove he was framed.

Yet despite hostility from Fontaine's arrogant business partner, opposition from the police, and violent threats on her life, she perseveres in the case.

Now she is forced to use everything she's learned just to stay alive.
