“DOG BITES MAN is exhilarating for its wit and inventiveness. One sure sign of that for me is that it has stayed in my mind, following me around (like a friendly dog licking at my ankles, in fact!) over the last several days. I actually SEE it! What I especially love about the novel is its rare balance between warmth, comedy and terror. It’s comic and fearful and loving, all at the same time. And there’s a political aspect to the story as well that feels timely. Also, Evo and Darm have such a wonderful reality as characters. The way they talk to each other suggests they’ve known each other for years. Theirs is an intimacy that incorporates jest, irritation, sympathy and a quiet love as well.”
