Reviews

“The ultimate night in L.A.”  —Katherine Dunn “Todd Grimson is the hippest writer in America today. Stainless is Anne Rice for hipsters and the first great vampire novel of the postmodern era.” —James Ellroy “Like its vampire characters, Stainless is a novel that grows stronger with age. We are obsessed with the vampire today because it represents the ideal of our culture. Beautiful and sparkly. Eternally youthful. Impervious to emotion or other human frailties. Not subject even to death. The vampire is much like the image we are sold of ourselves in advertising and Hollywood movies. As strong as that culture was in the 1990s, it has only grown stronger today. Stainless is a novel waiting to be rediscovered by a generation obsessed with image, even if it costs us our souls.” —Damien Walter, The Guardian “A kind of satanic Less than Zero.”  —Joe Queenan, The New York Times Book Review
