Reviews

""Slam is must reading--an anthem--for IRS parolees who skate. For the rest of us it's just a quirky joy of a novel, one that happens to be thought provoking."" -- ""Houston Chronicle"" ""A beautifully understated comic nightmare about an ex-con's misbegotten attempts to tread the straight and narrow outside the slammer...After a series of plot twists worthy of Thomas Pynchon or Joe Orton...Shiner does manage a happy ending as magically unexpected as pulling twenty-three cats out of a hat."" -- ""Kirkus Reviews"" ""An unqualified delight."" -- ""Publishers Weekly"" ""It takes a laid-back squint at reality and then slips into an alternative groove all its own."" -- ""Boston Sunday Globe "" ""Realism, idealism, and fantasy are skillfully interwoven into a novel of personal adjustment and rebellion."" -- ""Library Journal""
