“A peculiar fusion of tragedy and comedy. Rendell’s plots are disturbing, her characters depressing, but when they are viewed through the lens of her strange humour, the effect is exhilarating. In the manner of David Lynch’s film Blue Velvet, surreal horror is joined with absurdity to produce a sensibility that at first may seem grotesque, but is truly original and vital.”
- Patrick Kavanagh, The Fiddlehead
