The Resurrectionist

"O'Connell is a mesmerizing storyteller."--The Atlanta Journal-Constitution "O'Connell is a mesmerizing storyteller."-The Atlanta Journal-Constitution "A masterpiece, O'Connell's "tour de force" has a dose of the uncertainty of Kafka, the fantasy of Bradbury, the crisp prose of Greene, and the noir of Chandler." - The Strand Magazine "Unfailingly sly. . . . O'Connell is skilled at walking his particular tightrope between reality and surreality."--The Washington Post "It's a measure of O'Connell's immense talent that, while creating his absolutely original and hyperbolic world, he also paints a striking vision of the haunting ways in which life and art mirror each other."-- Publishers Weekly, starred A "dark, wildly inventive fantasy. . . . A nightmarish story that's hallucinatory, tightly structured and ultimately redemptive."--Kirkus "'Graham's measured reading steers a course through nagging crossroads of perception, allowing layers of reality and fantasy to wash over us in a very effective, if nonlinear, listening experience." --Booklist "Reed's performance is effortless . . ." --AudioFile "A wild, surreal and thought-provoking ride." --San Francisco Chronicle "To call Jack O'Connell's novels imaginative, or even original, doesn't begin to say it . . . There's something both exciting and unnerving about [his] kind of hallucinatory writing." --The New York Times Book Review 'Graham s measured reading steers a course through nagging crossroads of perception, allowing layers of reality and fantasy to wash over us in a very effective, if nonlinear, listening experience.

AudioFile " "A wild, surreal and thought-provoking ride." "San Francisco Chronicle" " "O'Connell's gift for building tension within a scene is equaled by his ability to create wonderfully dark and elaborate stage sets upon which to play out his dramas . . .
