Literature & Fiction Editorial Review
**** "Death of a Transvestite," Ed Wood's sequel to "Killer in Drag," plunges readers back into the eccentric world of Glen Marker (Glenda Satin), a cross-dressing hitman on death row. This installment takes a more ambitious narrative route, showcasing Wood's characteristic blend of pulp fiction with fringe cultural commentary. The plot unfolds with Glen in his cell, preparing for execution and seeking to tell his story in exchange for a last wish—to die in drag. This frame story effectively sets the tone as Glen recounts his escapades in Hollywood, showcasing relatable friendships and darker themes. The introduction of new characters like Pauline, a drag hit-person, weaves added complexity and amplifies the tension surrounding Glen's fate. The interactions Glen has with his allies and adversaries are sharp and nuanced; notably, his relationship with Cynthia, a sympathetic figure, juxtaposes the raunchiness typical of Wood's work with a layer of emotional depth. Readers can expect a narrative filled with social commentary, particularly concerning Glen's struggles with identity and acceptance. Throughout the novel, Wood shifts from the earnestness of his first book to a more nihilistic tone, allowing for a deeper exploration of the culture around Hollywood and its shadows. However, this shift isn’t without its inConsistencies, with certain plot points feeling rushed or contrived. "Death of a Transvestite" undoubtedly contains raunchier material than its predecessor, ensuring it caters less to younger audiences. Despite its sordid themes and occasional lapses into absurdity, the novel retains a compelling, albeit twisted charm, particularly for those familiar with Wood's cult status in film history. Overall, while it might not be an undisputed masterpiece, "Death of a Transvestite" is a significant step in Wood's literary evolution—an offering that might resonate with fans of his unique cinematic and literary style, if they can embrace the imperfections and eccentricities that define his work. **
