Booklist gave Cooley Windsor‘s forthcoming story collection, Visit Me in California, a starred review: “These stories give new and devastating insight into what it means to yearn and what it means to falter; they commit the rare and essential accomplishment of exposing their characters as wounded, flawed, and wholly human.”
And Publisher’s Weekly had this to say: “Windsor’s stories possess the startling, memorable quality of the brightest fiction.”
Matthew Iribarne, whose Astronauts and Other Stories is a favorite of mine, calls Visit Me in California “a remarkable, deeply affecting piece of work.”
I can’t wait to get my hands on it. If the book is half as smart and funny as Cooley himself, I know my head will be spinning.
