Story after story she's hauling out some new literary stunt, some new way to make her story enthrall you.--Salty Ink "Jones takes an unblinking look at a variety of social misfits and more run-of-the-mill damaged people, all trying to find their way...a brilliant collection"--The Chronicle Journal "When Jones hits her stride, she displays an incisive eye, a knack for poignancy, and sharp, witty dialogue."&#8212Quill & Quire "Amy Jones excels at the prose of invisible labour. In the best of this debut collection, her writing reads like understanding - as if there's no gap between the words and what they make you perceive."&#8212Globe and Mail
