Big Joe

An uproarious and scandalous Southern picaresque by the master Samuel R. Delany. A chance encounter with two older fellows at the movie theater has the young vagabond Ligie on his way to Lot-8, a trailer park down the road with an unconventional local reputation. There, Ligie meets Big Joe and his extended Lot-8-family: a loose-knit community of freaks all sectioned together by the landlord at the outskirts of town.
Weaving together colorful characters and outright carnal debauchery, Big Joe is a radical pastoral of community, desire, and the strangeness of knowing one another.
