Critical Statement by Michael McIrvin, critical essayist, novelist, poet:

“The pieces that make up Spiel’s Insufferable Zipper run the gamut from prose poetry to lyrical stories reminiscent of Burroughs in their tough surreal nature…
The bottom line is that these are not traditional short stories but what happens when a poet writes prose, which shows in the attention to language, to the ways images make up not just a picture but a holistic narrative.”
