It seems like the people who died in the World Trade Center must have died for someone and shouldn't everyone write a book for them. And what about me? Shouldn't everyone write a book for me. Who would write a book for all the women, or all the men. The queers. How about all the people who died in the holocaust. What about all the people who didn't. What about the people working in the buildings not next, but not far from the World Trade Center. Or in other cities. Why doesn't everybody write a book for them? And who would be its author. kari edwards comes up & down like a cloud writing a sneering exuberant millennial book, speaking for the army of us who know something else, but don't know how to say or do. kari edwards' a day in the life of p is a total fucking masterpiece.

I can't stop reading it, it's screamingly grey, it's better than phone sex, than Burroughs or Proust, it's outrageously cool" —Eileen Myles.
