Praise for this book
"When you gaze into the abyss, Mariana Enriquez looks up to you from those depths, grins to herself, and then gives her attention back to the next story she's pulling into the world." - Stephen Graham Jones
"A Sunny Place for Shady People reveals as much about ourselves as it does our ineffably strange, horrific world. Enriquez's characters' desperate, longing struggle for meaning and hope has never been so poignant and beautiful, nor so damned chilling. A collection of brilliant nightmares from one of our best." - Paul Tremblay
