FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Tangerinephant is one of the newest books from a growing underground genre that exists on the borders of surrealism, dark fantasy, science fiction, horror, absurdism, and magical realism. Those who enjoy satire, science fiction, and surrealism in the traditions of Kurt Vonnegut, Phillip K. Dick, and William S. Burroughs will be pleased with Tangerinephant.
