Reviews
Praise for P.S. Your Cat Is Dead
"An extraordinary novel . . . an ingenious, intriguing, and also moving story about two losers who become friends. It is also a revealing book about burning your bridges behind you."—Sacramento Union
"This novel is woven together with such artistic acumen that suspense never ebbs. The plot structure, characterization, dialog and style are virtually flawless."—Chicago Sun-Times
"James Kirkwood manages to combine the most marvelous light witty dialogue with the most harrowing of events . . . absolutely fascinating—I couldn't stop reading from the minute the first shot was fired."—Nora Ephron
"With every page the situation gets crazier, zanier, more improbable, also funnier . . . Kirkwood's bizarre humor comes off, thanks to his ability to throw opposites together, with a stand up comic's timing."—Publishers Weekly
