"Dorene O'Brien's stories operate on a different plane and dimension of realism--flesh and blood, yet dipped in a neon wash perhaps. At once a scientist of sensory details and a heartfelt observer of the intricacies of the human psyche, O'Brien's prose possesses a particular cinema that will not just stay in your mind but your gut as well." ¿Porochista Khakpour, author of Sons and Other Flammable Objects, The Last Illusion and Sick
