"I once woke from surgery to find that a faulty spinal catheter had kept painkillers from getting into me: Blake Butler's UXA.GOV brought this memory back. The book's a shock to the system, a storehouse of what you'll see and hear when it's your turn to hurt and hallucinate-it's visceral, inventively so, and visionary and filled with a feeling of inevitability. I found it both soothing and sick, a palliative in reverse."
