Reviews
Walking out your door each morning to a world not quite as you expect it, and then walking back inside each evening to a world not quite as you expect it Ñ that's the effect of reading Emergency Hallelujah, as though everything has shifted an inch to the left. There's nothing expected about Jason Heroux's world: it's fresh, complex, uncanny, playful, threatening, and real. His wide-awake mini-fables will enter your dreams. Ó (Roo Borson)
