"A wit as sharp as Sedaris, a sensibility as poignant as Sexton, Brown manages to blur the lines between cult writer and poet with remarkable ease and grace." - Anthem Magazine "Derrick Brown's work--both on and off the page--sizzles with jolting images and blasts of humor, yet retains a deep compassion at its core. He has a heart the size of a Mack truck, but we're not sure who's behind the wheel." - Jeffrey McDaniel "Sincere, twisted and violently romantic." - OC Weekly
