Lord of Misrule

Jaimy Gordon

From Shelf: The 2012 Women's Prize for Fiction Longlist

Lord of Misrule follows five characters - scarred and lonely dreamers - through a year and four races at Indian Mound Downs, downriver from Wheeling, West Virginia.

Longlisted for the Orange Prize 2012. He planned to steal with these horses, who were all better than they looked on paper. The trick was to get in and get out fast. But could he really pull it off? Could he be that sure, could he count on being that lucky? Listen carefully my dear. Lord of Misrule, he whispered loudly. Lord of Misrule, Margaret. Memorize that name.
