Customer Reviews

Absolutely Delectible!

Each story, each line, almost each word in this book is a perfect little morsel of most delicious imagination, wit, wordplay and everything else that would make a story shine. Some stories are nothing short of Orgasmic - leaving you gasping for breath, making you want to just sit there and smoke a cigarette and let the perfection of the experience fill you with passion for Valenzuela's writing. Buenissimo!
