Industry Reviews
"[A] stunning first novel....[W]hat propels 'Bringing Out the Dead' is not the gruesome details, or Pierce's vivid psychological disturbance, or the thin plot, but the vigorous rhythms of Connelly's writing..."
New York Times Book Review - Charley Rosen (02/22/1998)
"Don't expect a strong sense of plot or direction from this zany, painfully sensitive debut--just think of it as a nightmare to endure along with Frank until you're released by the last page."
Newman
"This nightmarish yet immensely satisfying novel plunges us into the dead-of-night wasteland of Hell's Kitchen in midtown Manhattan....Connelly crowds this book with one hilarious and tragic incident after another....We never doubt the authenticity of every detail..."
San Francisco Chronicle - Patricia Holt (02/13/1998)
