Reviews

`[Rosenblatt's] sure, steady authorial voice and his courageous willingness to look into the luminous darkness at the centre of the human heart make this difficult material into a compelling beauty.'

`[Joe Rosenblatt's] final book plunges into offshore depths, sweats its path through tropical rainforests, and soars ``above those lingering puffs of smoky acrid clouds,'' to bring together the elements-wet, dry, hot and windy-of his whole lyrical ``monsterology,'' both a culmination and a continuation of all that went before....

Disgusting? Well, yes, but no. The language is so rich, the pace so exhilarating, the images so startling, and the wit so wry that one cannot pause for disgust.

`These days the need to escape our everyday reality is palpable. With surprising depth and incredible syntax, Joe Rosenblatt's Bite Me! offers a chance to slip into a light-hearted fantasy world filled with creatures and camp.'
