Trout's Lie

In Trout's Lie, Percival Everett explores the semantic relationship between sense and so-called nonsense--and questions whether either is actually possible.

His last volume of poems, Swimming Swimmers Swimming was also published by Red Hen Press. He is Distinguished Professor of English at the University of Southern California.
