THE WAY OF THE JAGUAR
by Francisco X. Stork
SECOND PRIZE, CHICANO/LATINO LITERARY CONTEST, UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, IRVINE
On death row in a Texas prison, a wealthy lawyer is writing his memoirs and pursuing a course of physical and spiritual development called “the way of the jaguar.” He takes us back to the day when a seemingly harmless act- stamping out a neighbor’s spring-cleaning fire – leads to the loss of his career and marriage, the search for a lost love in his hometown of El Paso, and murder.
“…a splendidly intense debut, salted with irony and peppered with truly sexy sex- a blend of magical realism and gritty realism.”- Publishers Weekly
