What People Are Saying About Donald Goines by Calvin Westra
“Exceptional. Strange. Weirdly tender. A book that follows its own rules. Loved every page.”
— Mike Nagel, author of Duplex
“Donald Goines is a skilled adaptation and a commentary on adaptation intertwined. More than a dedication, more than a headnod, Donald Goines salutes its namesake by being a successful experiment. It is one of a half-dozen or less unorthodox novels to come out this year that have a heart, and for that reason people will continue to read it.”
— Conor Hultman, XRAY Literary Magazine
“This is an amazing novel...I was in awe, surprised every other page or so by some new element, some new turn that revealed the characters and their world. Pulled me in right away and whenever I wasn’t reading it I was thinking about it and excited to get back into its world.”
— Bud Smith, author of Teenager
