'The luxurious meander of Woodrell's prose is both beguiling and menacing.' Nick Kimberley, The Guardian
'Flamboyantly brutal dialogue catches the speed of lives lived at the rate of criminal tempo. Definately lives up to his rep.' I-D
'The colouful characters and the piquant tongues in which they speak really have us swooning ... all offer hot-breathed testimony to the human gumbo that boils in St.Bruno.' New York Times Book Review
'Woodrell is on teh cutting edge of mean ... a born writer. His style is both brutal and touched with poetry. And it's very much his own. Don't miss it.' Philadelphia Inquirer
'Faulknerian relationships, ripe dialogue and a dark, dim view of human nature ... as mean and dirty as they come.' Kirkus Reviews
'Daniel Woodrell is stone brilliant ... a bayou Dutch Leonard steeped in rich Louisiana language.' James Ellroy
