'What makes this worth reading is Craig Clevenger's extraordinary prose: the pleasure of text is everything.' Guardian

'What makes the book so unique, so compulsively readable, is Clevenger's ability to make complex images seem so unforced.' Independent on Sunday

'A brilliant satire.' Sainsbury's Magazine

'It's dizzying stuff...no wonder Chuck Palahniuk is singing his praises on the back cover.' Metro

Praise for 'The Contortionist's Handbook':

'A dazzling and highly original debut novel which instantly establishes its author as one of the most interesting writers to emerge in years. This book deserves to be massive and I think it will be.' Irvine Welsh

'Craig Clevenger has crafted an unforgettable antihero in John Dolan Vincent. This is an extraordinary debut.' Richard Kelly, director of 'Donnie Darko'

'What sticks out about this remarkable debut are its pitch-perfect shock ending and John Vincent himself - his complex, conflicting mind, original voice and unnervingly self-defeating existence.' Time Out
