{"product_id":"9781930846173","title":"High Cotton: Selected Stories of Joe R. Lansdale","description":"This collection of Joe R. Lansdale stories represents the best of the \"Lansdale\" genre-a strange mixture of dark crime, even darker humor, and adventure tales. The stories are varied in setting and theme, but they are all pure Lansdale-eerie, amusing, and occasionally horrific. In \"The Pit,\" modern gladiators square off against one another using Roman methods. An alternate-history tale called \"Trains Not Taken\" shows Buffalo Bill as an ambassador and Wild Bill Hickok as a clerk. Lansdale's love of large lizards and humor are evident in the stories \"Godzilla's Twelve Step Program\" and \"Bob the Dinosaur Goes to Disneyland.\"\u003cp\u003eAuthor Biography: \u003ci\u003eJoe R.
