I just finished this, so perhaps the shock and discombobulation are still too fresh to make a coherent conclusion. We Can Never Leave This Place was as grotesque as it was confusing.

I should just stop reading his books because the covers are so beautiful. Better than the last one I read, but not my cup of tea.

I love horror, but I hated this.
I love Eric LaRocca’s voice in his writing. He truly knows how to turn a phrase and how to get to the emotional depths of a character and situation. But for all my love of Eric’s work, this novella left me wanting something. I don’t want to share too much, but I will say that there are characters within the story whose identities create a confusion and disconnect that ultimately distracts from the beautifully heart breaking story that is being told. I wanted to love this book. I truly loved the story that was being told, but in the end, the choice of characters left me confused.

This book was insane to read. The imagery was so intense and very descriptive.
Don’t read this if you have a weak stomach. Lots of wading through raw sewage.
I refuse to say a bad word about LaRocca. On that note, why is this book like an inch and a half taller than their other ones?
