Product Description

TimeOut Chicago, June 14, 2007

'Wedderburn pulls the old ?quirky town? maneuver exceptionally well, perhaps even using The Milk Chicken Bomb as a commentary on the maneuver itself. The abject poverty of Mullen?s family and neighbors is never sugarcoated, even if it does sometimes provide for humor, and the kid?s feelings of alienation and loneliness fall into a real and heartbreaking psychology.'

The Globe and Mail, June 2, 2007

'We want to know the truth. We also want fiction?s redemption. Wedderburn doesn?t give it, and that?s the big risk and great strength of this novel. His kid is that kid you saw once, down the street, who had the eyes of something hunted. Maybe you thought for a moment that something wasn?t right. Then you carried on with your day.'

4.0 out of 5 stars The Milk Chicken Bomb, Jul 29 2009

By	D. E. Schultz (Canada) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I read this book late last year and I'm surprised there hasn't been a review written yet. It was quite good. It's an odd little story told very simply and somehow sticks in your mind long after you've read it. Do yourself a favor and buy it.
