Eradicator by David  Simmons
"Simmons is absolutely incapable of boring the reader. This thing is bursting with lore and specificity yet it never bogs down the narrative. Bracingly gnarly and soaked in dread while also genuinely, truly funny, Eradicator is so unique and refreshin" Read more of this review »

Eradicator by David  Simmons
"It's giving Georges Bataille meets ODB. It's giving watching your wife give birth PTSD.

Eradicator by David  Simmons
"Like Cronenberg's The Fly, but....swaggier? (I don't know if that's a word)

For fans of Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, and Chander Morrison.

“Acoustics reverberate inside of Lucy Anna, bouncing off her walls and slamming against her bars. Harmonic prison.”
Kelby Losack, Toxic Garbage

“Creativity's too big a pill; the truth's too hard to swallow. Sprinkle sugar in a straight line and we'll all inhale and follow.”
Kelby Losack, Toxic Garbage

“No doubt, the toilet must have come alive and regurgitated all over the floor and walls. The putrid water is still trickling from the bowl.”
Kelby Losack, Toxic Garbage

“If there's any better place to get stoned than a rolling box full of pastry, then they didn't have the keys for it, anyway.”
Stephen Graham Jones, Zombie Bake-Off
tags: humor

“And, if I'm to be honest here, yes, I did indeed stop trying, finally. But the body breathes whether you want it to or not. The heart keeps beating. Perhaps because it knows more than you do--knows that, past this experience, a whole new life will open up, and whatever infirmities persist, they can be dealt with one by one.”
Stephen Graham Jones, The Ones That Got Away

“Choose a life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television. Choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers... Choose DSY and wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit crushing game shows, stucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away in the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up brats you spawned to replace yourself, choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that?”
Irvine Welsh, Trainspotting

“By definition, you have to live until you die. Better to make that life as complete and enjoyable an experience as possible, in case death is shite, which I suspect it will be.”
Irvine Welsh, Trainspotting

“Aye Oedipus, yir a complex fucker right enough”
Irvine Welsh, The Acid House
