Critics Review
“On its surface, NEUROTICA is a book filled with cosmic dread and star-filled dreams, a long, deep gaze into the abyss. But beneath the Lovecraftian and Liggotian despair is a beating heart and an intricate mind, a search for something seemingly outside ourselves yet, ironically, found only in the heart. There’s a gossamer thread of hope that runs through these often dystopian, but darkly intimate, poems.” – Philip Fracassi, USA Today bestselling author of THE AUTUMN SPRINGS RETIREMENT HOME MASSACRE
“Neurotica is poetic napalm—incendiary, adhesive to the reader’s skin—the kind of scorched earth collection that devastates with every entry. Believe me: these poems singe the subconscious.” – Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Wake Up and Open Your Eyes
“Cosmic, yet intimate, Neurotica is a well-crafted meditation of the self amidst the the scale of the universe. A deep exploration of identity, pain, and life that deserves to be read.” – Pedro Iniguez, Bram Stoker and Elgin Award-winning author of Mexicans on the Moon: Speculative Poetry from a Possible Future
“Neurotica is filled with stitched words, seamless, that express breathless desolations and scorching devastations while exploring the complexities of existence and identity, confinement and liberation, as well as darkness, death, decay, and all that is selfhood.” – Ai Jiang, Bram Stoker and Nebula award-winning author of Linghun
“Maxwell I. Gold is a truly distinctive voice in contemporary weird fiction.” – S.T. Joshi
“Maxwell I. Gold’s poetry is a Hadron Collider for the imagination…” – John Edward Lawson
