“Courtney Eldridge creates dark chaotic worlds, then traps the reader inside this space until they have read the last word, thereby becoming her collaborator. Not yet satisfied, Eldridge then tightens the snare, leading the reader deep inside each narrator’s psyche as they grapple with the diseases of our world. She dissects compulsions, manias, food addictions, antics of an alcoholic parent, and the irrational fear of confronting sharks in swimming pools. Eldridge’s (obsessions) are bloody, naked and screaming. It’s hard not to look.”
