Gr Cleanup Originally Read in June 2011 Henri has just graduated high school and has been spending the warm summer nights hanging out in the bayou, enjoyably ogling a young black musician. He knows what he’s doing spells trouble, it’s 1959, he’s gay (and in the closet) and racial tensions are stro...
A homosexual black man who can morph into an alligator? Who has an affair with an eighteen-year-old white boy? In Louisiana? In the 1950s? There was so much potential to this plot set up I couldn’t help but read it. Sadly, the story fell short of my expectations. The whole alligator shape shifting d...

My reason comes from my dislike over the writing style or how the story is structured. ...
Nice writing, but logical holes to drive eighteen-wheelers through: no selfrespecting hitman who is hired to kill a witness in a mob trial would "stalk" this guy for weeks. Dude, if the professional hitman is so stupid that he watches the guy instead of killing him outright, you should ask for your ...
I love this author's stories, but when I bought this one for some reason hearing that this work was inspired by "Brokeback mountain" made me put it aside and only pick it up today.
