Summary
A reissue of the national bestselling novel by JT LeRoy/Laura Albert

Sarah never admits that she is 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 miniskirt 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.

I have never read a book so spectacularly drawn, so daringly crafted, so painfully invented. This world is like none other and yet so real that you can taste and touch it. The characters are so vivid and complex you feel like you know them or hope to one day walk past them and give them a wink like you’ve shared something private with them, like you know one of their secrets. JT LeRoy (Laura Albert) is brilliant. Sarah is now high on my list of favorite books. And, the recording - narrator - is outstanding.
