Rezension zu „Russell, K: Vampires in the Lemon Grove “
"Her work has a velocity and a trajectroy that is little less than dazzling and a tough, enveloping, exhilarating voice than cannot be equaled." Joy Williams, New York Times "Wildly fun and full of suspense" -- Jess Holland Observer "Russell can take Antarctic tailgaters, an army of seagulls or simply a window and twist a tale that explodes on the page and lingers in the mind" -- Fiona Wilson The Times "These stories use the fantastical to make mythic sense of the human struggle, and perfectly balance light and dark, funny and serious, wacky and realistic" -- Suzi Feay Financial Times "A consistently arresting, frequently stunning collection...Even more impressive than Russell's critically acclaimed novel." Kirkus Reviews
