Reviews
"Elliott may be writing under the influence, but it's the influence of genius." Vanity Fair "Elliott writes with a grace and precision that calls to mind Truman Capote's landmark work, In Cold Blood . He, too, is fascinated by questions of motive, how our capacity to love is disfigured into evil, and our tangled mechanisms of denial." The Boston Globe "A searing, self-conscious memoir of drug addiction, obsession and art as a means of survival." Minneapolis Star-Tribune "It opens with this line: 'My father may have killed a man,' then continues for 208 taut, high-wire, brilliant pages . . . With candor so raw it makes me never want to use 'fiercely honest' to describe another writer's work." Las Vegas Weekly "You won't find a more provocative, masterful, thrilling ride than this."
