Review by: Transgressive Fiction on Feb. 04, 2010 :
One of the weirdest stories we've ever read. Miller gets good mileage out of simple plot device.

Review by: asrai devin on Jan. 20, 2010 : (no rating)
Poor Ted, the likeable, if fastidious, hero comes home one day to find a crouton perfectly centered on his white sofa. Since he lives alone, he equates this to being ransacked. As he checks his apartment for intruders, he reasons why he doesn't eat croutons. He also shows us his anxious past.
It only gets worse for poor Ted. As a reader you aren't sure whether to sympathize with him or laugh your ass off.
