Notes

Description
Falsely accused of rape, Lester Ballard is released from jail, and a trip to the dry-goods store, an errand to the blacksmith, and other incidents are transformed into scenes of the comic and the grotesque.
Description
Child of God is a taut, chilling novel that pumbs the depths of human degradation. Falsely accused of rape, Lester Ballard-- a violent, dispossessed man who haunts the hill country of East Tennessee-- is released from jail and allowed to roam at will, preying on the population with his strange lusts.
