Reviews

[Rudolph Redington · Rating 4 out of 5]

A great book. A disillusioned, sentimental, interesting, often comic view of a philosophic towny. Evokes something in someone intimate with mid-range Appalachia and is sentimental, sees it's beauty, but isn't horribly optimistic.

[Alan ten-Hoeve · Rating 5 out of 5]

A tale of love lost not only on a personal level but with the fickle culture in which we are all inextricably entwined. To me EARPLUGS is one of those rare creations that explores the boundaries of what a great american novel can be.
Acerbic and funny, yet brilliantly poetic. I hope to be reading Bram Riddlebarger's work for years to come.
