zoidoid: and the commonplace (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798234050915)

"Zoidoid is a small novel that's looking for trouble. I'm a veteran of many psychic wars, but I'm not sure the damage I've suffered from this highly entertaining romp can ever be overcome. I may not be able to take anything seriously ever again. Avoid this book if you want to fit in."

- R.U. Sirius, co-founder of Mondo2000

"This is wild stuff!" -Erik Davis, author of High Weirdness

"Chase Griffin has a strong and unique imagination!"-Jeff Noon, author of Vurt

"Zoidoid shows its readers that there is more to our world than what standard language tells us on the surface level. This book teaches us to look for the world beyond the breakdown of our language. This world does exist, as long as you are open to finding it."-Becky Curl, author of Train Boyfriends

"A mix of Joyce, Philip K. Dick and Kurt Vonnegut? Yes, but not quite so: Chase Griffin's Zoidoid is a unique and compelling novella with a particular style. Peter lost his parents, but he's still a Zoidoid, oh yes, he has a peculiar way of expressing himself and he will never be just like all the others... Chase Griffin takes the reader along a funny, engaging and heart-warming adventure set in a dystopian future. You cannot put this inventive book down until you finish it!"-João Reis, author of An Atavic Fear of Hailstorms

"Chase Griffin's alchemical style continues with Zoidoid. At once a fanciful record of an unfathomable mind and experiment in merriment, the book is unabashed with its lingual adventurousness. When life gives you strange frequencies it's time to whistle your own tune. Griffin is a psychedelic jester, and, as is common to that type, also the smartest guy in the room."-Rebecca Gransden, creative director of Xray Lit Mag"Only the mind of Chase could do something like this. Only Chase could zip us in such a way through our haecceity-jungle, this thick and tangible realm of vibe, mood, and memory into the core of the Air Loom, INTO! the dark heart of humanity!"-Chris Thomas, beloved Tampa sportswriter and secret weird fiction aficionado and mentor of Chase
