“Jennifer Caloyeras is an enormously talented writer with a rare combination of great imagination and heart.”
Max Brooks, author of
The Zombie Survival Guide and
World War Z “A can’t-miss collection for readers who love a blend of humor, magical realism, and surrealism.”
Bustle
“Jennifer Caloyeras’s stories snap, crackle, and pop with animal energy. Every one of these stories is an unruly creature, wild at heart, fierce and funny, and heartbreaking.”
Zsuzsi Gartner, author
of Better Living through Plastic Explosives and
All the Anxious Girls on Earth “Riotous, off-kilter, tender, magical—this collection is utterly accomplished and madly engaging. Jennifer Caloyeras’s writing is as wild and beautiful as the unruly creatures in her stories.”
Laura Trunkey, author of
Double Dutch, a 2017 ABA Indies Introduce title
"Caloyeras guides us through her characters' states of mind, traversing the conscious and subconscious. Call it magical realism, or just refer to it as "weird stuff, dude." Either way, all the unbelievable-yet-somehow-believable worlds that Caloyeras creates feel easy for readers to fall into in an Alice down-the-rabbit-hole kind of way."
