Ugly Town

Horror meets the American Dream in this politically timely, scathing, take-no-prisoners novel about Hollywood, suburban sprawl, racism, gun culture, automobile fetishism, love & hate, and what just may prove to be the American Nightmare. Award-winning author and screenwriter Debra Di Blasi returns to the scene of society's crimes with comical, outrageous, angry, and horror-filled excoriations.

Praise for Debra Di Blasi's Writing

New York Times Book Review: "In clear, resonant prose, laced with bittersweet humor, Di Blasi imparts her understanding of love's multiple ironies."

Publishers Weekly: "Both Di Blasi's style and her objective distance and comprehension of her chosen subject mark her as a very psychologically driven, very talented writer."

Kansas City Star: "Debra Di Blasi writes in a gray zone where literature, art and conceptual performance meet. Her prose reads like poetry or comes with scrapbook visuals. Her social comment channels Duchamp and his surreal cousins."
