“Book Descriptions: Garreta’s first new novel in a decade follows two young sisters who are dragged into one adventure after another when their father finds himself in possession of a concrete mixer. As he seeks to modernize every aspect of their lives, disaster strikes when the younger sister, Poulette, is subsumed by concrete.
Through puns, wordplay, and dizzying verbal effect, Garreta reinvents the novel form and blurs the line between spoken and written language in an attempt to modernize – or fundamentally undercut – the elasticity of communication.” DRIVE
