Judith Sonnet- Psych Ward Blues Review
Long time no see! I can only apologise, September and October have been busy- but I'm finally back with a review for you.. and it's one hell of a book too. Psych Ward Blues is like a trigger warning tapas. Judith takes everything from the mildly offensive to the utterly sacrilegious, flambés it (because fire is fun) and serves it up in the form of a short story collection. I don't doubt for a second, that there's something to scare everyone. Yes, it's indisputable that Psych Ward Blues will be joining the splatter wall of fame, sitting proudly in the company of Ralston's "Woom," and Volpe's "Talia." Psych Ward Blues is a short story collection, with the title novella coming at the end. An overarching theme of religion (and bizarrely.. tentacles) runs throughout, and truly implodes when the world literally ends in the novella. Included Short Stories: The opening short kept me reading for sure. In "Young 'un," a solid 4 star...
