Here Nor There

About the Book

"In Here Nor There Lee Kostrinsky forcefully establishes himself as a kind of hiphop-era Hubert Selby jr. Kostrinsky has the ability to burrow deeply into his character’s minds, where language and feeling can become so raw that they transcend plain sense in favor of pure sound. Kostrinsky creates an urban landscape of explosive immediacy and grittiness. He has managed to forge a collection of seemingly disparate and autonomous individual stories into a novel of Olympian expansiveness. Unlike Selby, Kostrinsky also ventures into the suburbs, where events take on a surprising weirdness all their own and the people are no less twisted than their urban counterparts. “Here Nor There”-an astonishingly assured debut by Lee Kostrinsky."
