About Sailor & Lula, Expanded Edition

“The Romeo and Juliet of the South” are back in this new edition of the internationally best-selling Sailor and Lula novels, now including for the first time the culminating novel, The Up-Down, by American master Barry Gifford.

“Barry Gifford invented his own American vernacular–William Faulkner by way of B-movie film noir, porn paperbacks, and Sun Records rockabilly–to forge the stealth-epic of Sailor & Lula”–Jonathan Lethem

Here for the first time in print together are all eight of the books that comprise the saga of Sailor Ripley and Lula Pace Fortune, “the Romeo and Juliet of the South”: Wild at Heart, Perdita Durango, Sailor’s Holiday, Sultans of Africa, Consuelo’s Kiss, Bad Day for the Leopard Man, The Imagination of the Heart, and The Up-Down.

Praise

“Sailor and Lula are two characters that inspire, thrill and light the imagination of the young the world over.” —David Lynch

“His stories about the couple, along with the friends, foes, and acquaintances who orbit them, are set in a noirish, Beat-infused, and yet somehow contemporary America that is threaded with equal parts grit and grace. The cultural references, both low and high, sprinkled throughout the pages of Sailor & Lula make up a master syllabus as regards What Is Cool …” —Los Angeles Review of Books
