Trust The Snakewoman? Novelist Defends His
Narrator
Here’s what happened. During the interview Dan
Klafsted questioned the narrator’s (Sunny’s) reliability. Did her husband,
Earl, really force her at gunpoint to put her arm in a box of rattlesnakes, or did
she get a snake out of the snakebox and try to get it to bite Earl? That’s Earl’s
version. In my mind Sunny’s version is the true one, but there’s a little wiggle room, and I'm not unhappy about that.
