Kirkus Reviews An intelligent Darwinian debut collection...[the]
writing [has] zest.
Time Out One is mesmerized by Gilbert's daring and absolute
persuasiveness....[A] distinctive voice.
Vanity Fair Hilarious and unnerving.
Adam Goodheart The New York Times Book Review Gilbert's dead-on
mimicry of conversational rhythms makes even the most ludicrous
exchange sound plausible, and he applies physical details sparingly
and potently...wickedly funny.
Christine DeZelar-Tiedman Library Journal Recommended for literary
collections.
Donna Seaman Booklist The action in Gilbert's fast, witty,
unnerving stories is dark and edgy to be sure, but his prose
gleams, a beacon in the fog of our numb days and nights.
Gina Vivinetto St Petersburg Times (Florida) If you read one
short-story collection all year, promise me it will be
Gilbert's....He's just about the funniest social commentator since
Fran Lebowitz....To call Gilbert insightful is an
understatement.
Michelle Goldberg Salon Scathing writing can be exhilarating.
Mike Musgrove The Washington Post These stories are funny and
thoroughly entertaining....Keep an eye on this guy David
Gilbert.
Sara Nelson Glamour The short stories in David Gilbert's Remote
Feed speak volumes about the ways modern men seek adventure and
comfort.
