SKIN
Acerca deste libro electrónico
Thirty years ago, SKIN changed the landscape of dark fiction forever. And now the girls are back in town.
"A dark and frightening work by a major talent whose prose reads like a collaboration between Clive Barker and William S. Burroughs. Highly recommended." - Library Journal
"[H]umorless novel about art punks in an unnamed present-day city...the novel, like the art of the characters it portrays, is a sustained exercise in style over substance." - Publishers Weekly
"The language Koja employs is fresh and astonishing, harsh yet beautiful." - Washington Post Book World
"The biggest flaw in this novel is the writing. Koja often abandons grammar, sentence structure, and, as a result, clarity. Many of her incomplete sentences are simply unintelligible." - The Tech
"Unexpectedly poignant ... Sentences as sharp and to the point as a scrotal stud." - SPIN
"[W]ill leave many fighting off its overload." - Kirkus Reviews
"Not an easy read, but perversely beautiful." - Vector
