Reviews" Grace Krilanovich 's first book is a steamy cesspool of language that stews psychoneurosis and viscera into a horrific new organism--the sort of muck in which Burroughs, Bataille, and Kathy Acker loved to writhe."-- The Believer "Krilanovich's work will make you believe that new ways of storytelling are still emerging from the margins."- NPR.org "One of 2010's small-press triumphs."- The Week " The Orange Eats Creeps contains the hallucinatory, disjointed, plotless, yet bizarrely charming ravings of a young refugee from foster care who now belongs to a pack of teenage hobo vampires that rove convenience stores and supermarkets high on Robitussin and mop buckets of coffee."- Newsday, " Grace Krilanovich 's first book is a steamy cesspool of language that stews psychoneurosis and viscera into a horrific new organism--the sort of muck in which Burroughs, Bataille, and Kathy Acker loved to writhe."-- The Believer "Krilanovich's work will make you believe that new ways of storytelling are still emerging from the margins."-- NPR.org "One of 2010's small-press triumphs."-- The Week " The Orange Eats Creeps contains the hallucinatory, disjointed, plotless, yet bizarrely charming ravings of a young refugee from foster care who now belongs to a pack of teenage hobo vampires that rove convenience stores and supermarkets high on Robitussin and mop buckets of coffee."-- Newsday
