"One of my favorite contemporary writers-Elsby's voice winds its way into your head and smashes about like a trapped heron."-B.R. YEAGER, author of Negative Space
"Elsby's voice is daring, original, and wholly uncompromising."-PAULA ASHE, Shirley Jackson Award-winning author of We Are Here to Hurt Each Other
"Depraved, stark, and dripping in blood... Unique prose, dark musings, and an experimental structure blend beautifully with the layers of grief and bodily autonomy."-SARA TANTLINGER, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of The Devil's Dreamland
