An all-timer -- a great political novel and a truly gripping and shocking morality play. I'll be thinking about the structure of this book, especially the last 100 pages, for a very long time. ...more

The Squimbop Condition by David Leo Rice
"Is there a more original writer currently working in the English language? Rice belongs in the same conversation as Volodine, Cărtărescu, and Lenz.

Few works are as deeply engaging and deeply strange and thought through as this. Hopefully Rice’s work" Read more of this review »

Quotes by David Leo Rice  (?)

“It's like that feeling near sleep, where one thought leads to the next while eclipsing whatever came before it, so that, from any one thought, it's impossible to remember any other, the effect being that every thought, no matter how banal, takes on the immense gravity of The Only Thought Ever.”
David Leo Rice, The PornME Trinity

“Over the course of that day, spent, as all days, wandering the old and drafty streets of the city, from the edge of the university where he’s no longer welcome to the alley of used booksellers whose wares no longer speak to him, anders comes to see that the roller coaster, and nothing else will be the culmination of his tenure on the planet.”
David Leo Rice, Drifter: stories

“He always entered the Hate Room soberly, steeled for the grim business of cleaning the black matter out, but he always left it in rattled, in more of a hurry than he wanted to be.”
David Leo Rice, Drifter: stories
