“[Teasley's] characters are an exotic blend of the neurotic and the noirish--tense, hungry, dangerous folk of diverse ethnicities who crave understanding and stimulation.” ―Village Voice
“Written in prose both blunt and elliptical, the dozen tales form a gritty, unflinching yet empathetic collage of lives on the precipice of contemporary America.” ―Los Angeles Times
“A daring and original voice.” ―San Francisco Chronicle
