Smonk by Tom Franklin
Set in the lawless town of Old Texas, Alabama, in 1911, this gritty and darkly humorous tale follows the notorious and grotesque E.O. Smonk, a man with a penchant for violence and chaos. As he faces trial for his numerous crimes, the town becomes a battleground of moral ambiguity and unchecked brutality. Amidst the chaos, a mysterious young woman named Evavangeline arrives, bringing with her secrets that could change everything. The narrative unfolds with a blend of Southern Gothic elements, exploring themes of vengeance, survival, and the thin line between justice and anarchy.
