Re: RARA-AVIS: Lansdale's Freezer Burn

FREEZER BURN is my favorite Lansdale book. Everyone should read it if only for the opening chapters which describe the main character's mother and the ill-fated robbery which put him on the run. Laugh out lound funny.
   
  It's been five or six years since I read it but I don't remember any Bibical themes other than the Christ reference you already mentioned. I suppose a case could be made for a "We're all the same under God's eyes" theme because of all physical issues of some of the supporting characters.
   
  Wasn't there a sexual intrigue going on between the wife of the carnival owner and the main character? She was a temptation to him?
