Other Voices, Other Doors is an unabashedly different book. It is a celebration of the inexhaustible shape-shifting power of stories. It is fantastic. It is mundane. And we are not in Kansas anymore.

"Patrick O'Leary wants to tell you a story: about Van Morrison, and vasectomies, and the aliens who are us; about the way it feels--really feels--to be alive and loving and hurting in a world made of wonders. So pull up a chair, open this book: and listen."
--Kathe Koja, author of Extremities

"Other Voices, Other Doors neatly captures the kaleidescopic nature of Patrick O'Leary's imagination. Begin reading with any piece--short story, essay, poem--and when next you check the time you will find hours have flown like some impossible bird. A truly hypnotic collection."
--Jeffrey Ford, author of The Physiognomy
