The Prague Post recommends TUND on its new summer reading list. The review enthuses: “This is rollicking prose of the Beat variety that seems to move forward of its own volition, telling of roadtrippers, office workers, miscreants of several varieties and ordinary folk. Garcia is a prose stylist, at times stringing out long, prose-poetic sentences that pull the reader along like a runaway Chevy, and at times slowing down the pacing, writing in short, choppy sentences that add level upon level to descriptions and the thought processes of his narrators.”

The Prague Post says of TUND: “Free-wheeling, word-slinging, experiential and accessible.”

The new TUND cover.

Says the publisher: “By turns defiant, paranoid, brooding, absurd and knock-down funny, Thor Garcia’s TUND is a startling creation. Peopled by a galaxy of fringe operators and hoodlums, tattered no-hopers and doom-drenched true believers, sadistic children and tormented hooch hounds — and not least, a girl called Spoogeface — TUND is a swirling landscape of meltdowns, terrifying visions and punch-drunk epiphanies. Irreverent and iconoclastic, it probes the desolation and cruelties, desperation and contradictions, the hazards and hoopla, of life in an unstable and emotionally crippled age. Brimming with riotous panache, anarchic soul and sinewy, exultant writing, TUND is sure to stimulate and dazzle.”

TUND IS HERE AT LAST
