Jesus of Cottondale by Jerry Leverett
Leverett sets a few disturbingly graphic scenes that include violence, sex and child abuse amidst a vivid and dynamic cast of characters with big personalities involved in a satisfying crime tale, à la Pulp Fiction. The star-crossed lovers at the center of the plot are highlighted against a gritty story about the dark side of Cottondale. Although infused with a generous dose of black humor, this tale is, at its heart, strikingly sentimental.
A young man’s trip to hell and back for true love, told with a quirky combination of brutality and charm.
