Editorial Reviews

A brutal and very funny update on the male psyche. These stories are beautifully written, breath-taking in their psychological detail. They are also, ultimately, unexpectedly moving.” —Emily Perkins

“Brandt accurately sums up the insecurities of the post-feminist male and nowhere more brilliantly than in 'The Jean Paul Sarte Experience' . . . Witty and evocative, this piece of surreal necrophilia alone is worth the cover price.” —Metro

“Brandt's comic touch is sure and wicked . . . This is an accomplished and hugely entertaining new voice in New Zealand fiction.” —Evening Post
