The Lizard Woman

First published in 1930 under the title Fever Pitch, The Lizard Woman is Frank Water's first novel. It foreshadows a theme central to Waters' later work: that we must attune our spirits to the land to fully understand our places in the natural order. Waters once made a long trip on horseback deep into Mexico, and this is knitted up in his well-wrought story of The Lizard Woman.
