The Long-Legged Fly is a novel of lost souls, troubled identities,
of identities pared down to the bone. It's a secret history of
American Identity caught in the web of an era when identity was
shifting, scrambled, and ill-defined, almost paranoiac; a time when
civil-rights turmoil was surfacing below the threshold of social
and political worlds
