About the author
"Through the fantastic and the surreal, Kennedy takes us on a journey to those more than real cities of the mind and habitations of the spirit. His is truly an original voice, the sort one discovers with enthusiasm and delight; the gifts he brings us are formidable, memorable, and lasting." --Gladys Swan (author of Carnival for the Gods ).
"A feast of language... a book readers (and writers!) need to read!." --Gordon Weaver (author of The Way We Know In Dreams ).
"Thomas E.Kennedy's fiction has won him a devoted band of followers who know what the rest of the literary world is just finding out: that he's writing some of the most intelligent and beautifully crafted short fiction in America... fresh and contemporary and very much his own." --W.D.Wetherell (author of Chekhov's Sister ).
