"Douglas Lain has a great brain. I am hugely impressed with his prospects to be a completely uncommercial genius. God help him." -Jonathan Lethem The stories in Last Week's Apocalypse are like a series of short, sharp shocks. Lain's writing is unsettling, ferociously smart, and extremely addictive. -Kelly Link "It's legitimate SF, and it's 'mainstream,' and it's metafiction: I don't know anyone else doing quite what Lain is doing (here and elsewhere); fascinating work, moving, strikingly honest, powerful." -Rich Horton, Locus "It drives straight out of the Pamela Zoline era of New Wave fiction, with a strong dose of nuclear paranoia and Reagan-era 'kill a Commie for mommy' reverse-nostalgia." -Jay Lake "Reads with compelling immediacy, an unnerving combination of masks, secrets that distort and finally shred one's identity, psychological experiments, and the growing threat of war in the Gulf Coast--focusing on Iraq." -Sherwood Smith, Tangent Online "Lain is a master at imbedding information for the reader to discover on subsequent readings." - Therese Pieczynski, Tangent Online http://www.douglaslain.com/purchase.html Read/Post Comments (0) Previous Entry :: Next Entry Back to Top |
