Praying Drunk isn’t out until February 2014, but the first review is already in, from Publishers Weekly, which calls it a “dazzling, emotional, funny, captivating puzzle.” I’m happy with that!
An excerpt: “Similar to a great magic trick, the 13 stories in Minor’s (In the Devil’s Territory) latest lure reader investment with strong visuals while simultaneously pulling the rug out from underfoot with clever, literary sleights–of-hand. Though not necessarily linked in the traditional sense, there is a sequential order to the collection—ideas, locations, incidents, and characters echo as the volume chugs forward—and the result is an often dazzling, emotional, funny, captivating puzzle.”
