Shocking. Brilliant. Soul-shattering in its terrible beauty. In Worm, Edel Rodriguez rips open a heart-shaped window onto a hate-shaped world. I can't believe he survived it, but am deeply glad he did and was able to tell the tale. This book is so good it will likely be banned in Florida -- Chip Kidd, author of THE CHEESE MONKEYS Worm has consumed me more than any memoir I've read before, and that is saying a lot. It belongs in the pantheon that Maus built -- Steven Heller * Print Magazine * Exhilarating, immensely powerful, gorgeous, it really does open the imagination and sweep you up * PHILIPPE SANDS, bestselling author of EAST WEST STREET and THE RATLINE * Worm is a long and brilliant read, its artwork immediate and dramatic in its reduced palette of red, green, white and black, its writing tense and touched with a great talent for telling detail... A wise and life-stuffed memoir. -- Will Steen * BUZZ MAGAZINE * Worm is a testament to the power of political art. * CREATIVE REVIEW *
