"A matter-of-fact directness that pays the reader the compliment of being treated like a confidante." - Vulture

"He may not be sweet, but he is never soulless." - ArtNews

"Gary Indiana delves into the minds of his creepy, appalling characters with such probing wit and lip-smacking glee that we actually enjoy our time with these amoral monsters." - John Waters
