Critics Review
Praise for Invaginies
“A thought-provoking collection that readers will experience physically, making it a great suggestion for those who like to mix their literary fiction with visceral, lush prose, recounting stories that captivate and discomfort in equal measure.” —Booklist
“Joe Koch belongs in any conversation featuring the likes of Livia Llewellyn or Michael Cisco, but is incomparable. Dizzyingly inventive, and weird as weird gets, Invaginies will floor everybody.” —Laird Barron, author of Not a Speck of Light (Stories)
“I’m awestruck by Joe Koch’s nonstop spellbinding, almost paralyzingly inventive and yet propulsive, ultra-focused prose.” —Dennis Cooper, author of The Marbled Swarm, I Wished, and The Sluts
