Sleep Decades — Malarkey Books, 2024
"My sense is that Sleep Decades will be regarded one day as the memorable debut of its celebrated and important author. As in Dahlberg, the writing achieves its convulsive effects from a sonorous baroque style set against the low life, in this case the milieu of teenagers, receptionists, activists, beach partiers, and potheads, among others. As in Cortázar, its heart lies firmly in sympathy with the unwieldy passions of young people. And as in Carpentier, its erudition is daunting, but relieved by a streak of mordant humor and classical form."
―Alvin Lu, author of The Hell Screens
