Editorial Reviews

Clay McLeod Chapman

"Reading Wretch is akin to discovering the gospels of a cruel god, where suffering bleeds into the sublime. LaRocca's new testament is equally sacrilegious as it is transcendent, and I for one will forever consider myself an acolyte of his brutal body of work."
