ADDICTING

Pink Steam is amazing. This collection is day glow, polka-dotted, sickly sweet like button candy, but with a tanas root under-taste, like those milkshakes Doctor Saperstein prescribed the heroine in "Rosemary's Baby". There is a diabolical quality to the writing, which shakes the reader up, forcing us to pay attention. Although experimentation reigns supreme, there is an inevitability to the stories that gives them propulsion, and keeps the reader hungry for more ...the woven texture of combined pop cultural reference, personal exploit and sharp insight locks together to form an original object d'arte. This tapestry creates a living, breathing web, speckled with dew and sweat, catching light and refracting it into blood-jewels, bubble gum pieces with liquid insides. This is a book you'll come back to again and again.
