A Savage Wisdom is inspired by the life, crimes and legends of Annie Beatrice McQuiston aka Toni Jo Henry, the only woman executed in Louisiana's electric chair. The author uses the actual names and aliases of the murderess and the fact that the killing took place on Valentine's Day, 1940. German's novel is a stark, page-turning re-creation, rich with detail and imagery where intimacy and deception flow into a chilling tragedy. The author’s historical inquiry empowers the reader to imagine a woman consumed by passion, and a betrayal that conspires against one who "learned, then practiced, a savage wisdom." With the vibrancy of Louisiana color A Savage Wisdom weaves the reader into the life of a "love-struck southern girl ... and a cold-blooded killer." About the Author Dr. Norman German is Professor of English at Southeastern Louisiana University, Fiction Editor for Louisiana Literature, and Winner of the Deep South Writers' Contest for No Other World. A Savage Wisdom is his third novel. A specialist in twentieth-century American literature, he has also published award-winning short stories, poems, and literary criticism. His stories have appeared in commercial and literary magazines, including Shenandoah, The Virginia Quarterly Review, Sport Fishing, and Salt Water Sportsman. His scholarly articles cover a wide range of major American authors including Ernest Hemingway, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Raymond Carver, Zora Neale Hurston, Ralph Ellison, James Dickey, and Anthony Hecht.
