SLSL "Swamp Wench"

[Dave Monroe]

"The swamp book is a little known American literary
genre which flourished in the forties to mid fifties.
Sadly, interest in swamp literature has faded and the
swamp novel has been lost to the mists of history.
Here are a few surviving examples."

E.g. ...

Sylla was young in years. But what she had stacked
into those tender years was there for all to see--
the ripe fullness of the breasts that strained against
the faded shirt-- the skin tight jeans that clung to
her firm young thighs-- the tempting deliberateness
of her walk.

She spread desire like a fever among the rough,
reckless, hard drinking fishermen of the Florida
Keys.

They couldn't keep their eyes off her--or their
hands--And it drove one man to murder!

She stepped out from behind the tree trunk, her
daddy's shotgun cradled in her arms. "What are you
doin' here?" I said. "Squirm, Eddie." All that black
hair curtained her eyes, but she kept the gun slanted
at my face.
 
"Look here, Rosamay, what you aim to do with that
double barrel?"
