DESCRIPTION - The first thing Emil Jadick shoved through the door was double-barreled and loaded. Placing both barrels against the neck of one of the men seated at the poker table, he said: 'Do I have your attention? We're robbin' you assholes - any objections?' With that, he and his two partners rounded up the loot, pistol-whipping one man and leaving another dead. As they exited, Jadick paused - then blasted the fancy room, shattering glasses and whiskey bottles, scattering cards, shredding the blue felt that topped the gaming table. He was sending a message to St. Bruno's boss of bosses, old Auguste Beaurain: From now on, the town's closely run rackets were up for grabs. A new element had dropped in on the action - and they were playing for keeps. We're back in the steamy bayou town of St. Bruno, back with its losers and users, its explosive mix of rednecks, blacks, and Cajuns, back with the mercurial Shade family - including brother Tip, with a finger in all the town's gamy secrets and slightly soiled affairs; brother Francois, keeping his nose clean and his eye on the main political chance; and brother Rene, a cop by trade, at heart a renegade, maybe even an outlaw. 'Daniel Woodrell is stone brilliant - a Bayou Dutch Leonard, steeped in rich Louisiana language. MUSCLE FOR THE WING is vicious, colloquial, dark and - most surprisingly - brutally funny. To read it is to enter a superbly realized universe of surprises.' - James Ellroy, author of THE BLACK DAHLIA. Daniel Woodrell's first novel, UNDER THE BRIGHT LIGHTS - which John D. MacDonald called 'sly and powerful' - also featured Rene Shade and the misdoings of the overripe and steamily corrupt town of St. Bruno. His second, the highly acclaimed WOE TO LIVE ON, followed a band of irregulars as they ravaged the border states during the Civil War. The Chicago Tribune called it 'a renegade Western, one that celebrates the genre while bushwhacking its most cherished traditions,' and The Washington Post Book World hailed its 'considerable power [with] some of the authority of a parable.' inventory #23249. …

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. 8vo. Published by Henry Holt, New York. 1988. 168 pgs. First Edition/First Printing. DJ has light shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities. Bound in cloth boards with titles present to the spine. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. This action-packed thriller is underscored by Woodrell's ( Woe to Live On ) ability to evoke the tawdry bayou town of St. Bruno and its citizenry: a hodgepodge of misfits and small-time criminals. The Wing, a nationwide gang of ex-convicts and inmates led on the outside by Emil Jadick, will stop at nothing to gain control of the area's action, though it has been dominated for years by boss Auguste Beaurain. After Jadick and his bizarre henchmen invade a poker game and kill one of the players, Mayor Gene Crawford recruits cop Rene Shade, who first appeared in Under the Bright Lights , and his old friend Shuggie Zeck to find the Wing and dole out justice to the upstarts. An interesting relationship among the men culminates in a surprising conclusion. Woodrell's dialogue is humorous and convincing, and his deftly drawn characters are anything but ordinary. A top-notch tale that deserves attention. ; 8.2 X 5.7 X 0.8 inches; 168 pages.…
