Russell's \"virtuoso storytelling, evocative prose and original conception mark [his first book] as a significant work that we can only hope will be followed by many more\" (\u003cem\u003eChicago Tribune\u003c\/em\u003e). \u003cem\u003eYellow Jack\u003c\/em\u003e is a ribald, picaresque trip through an 1840s New Orleans saturated with sex, drugs, death, and corruption. In this \"luminously haunting\" (\u003cem\u003eEntertainment Weekly\u003c\/em\u003e) portrait of decadence, daguerrotypist Claude Marchand becomes hopelessly entangled with both a voodoo-adept octoroon mistress and the erotically precocious daughter of a prominent New Orleans family. \"Russell has distilled the New Orleans of the mid-1800s, the terrible fever of the title, and the savage lives of the characters into a novel of terrible beauty.\"--\u003cem\u003eNashville Scene\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 258\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.73 x 8.55 x 5.57 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 05, 2010\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42694606848063,"sku":"9780393321104","price":26.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/39f5d47499fcb488d925f1fd2355bd21.webp?v=1765001667","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/yellow-jack-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
