Review

"Frank's humor may laugh at us and our simple desires and hardships, but it also welcomes us to laugh at ourselves, comforting us in a communal sense of unhappiness. Sometimes it is a self-deprecating laugh, a satirical laugh a bit like a LOL—written but never audible." - The Brooklyn Rail "Jon-Michael Frank has an uncanny knack for expressing the worst in the best possible way." - The Oklahoma Gazette "Jon-Michael Frank's twisted take on life will make you laugh, then cry, then do one of those laugh-cry hybrids that really freaks everyone out." — Colin Nissan
