"Barracuda Guarisco's Noah Fang Quicksilver reads like a zine possessed by memory - funny, feral, and unexpectedly tender. Its fragmented structure mirrors the instability of the artistic life it depicts, pulling readers through the highs of creation and the lows of irrelevance."

-Lisa Bennington-Love

"Barracuda Guarisco's work is the result of lifting the mask of the physical world, and revealing the metaphysical, so that the absurdity and emotional truth is suddenly on full display. Truly refreshing work."

-J Ian Bush

"Noah Fang Quicksilver is Barracuda Guarisco is Kris Hall, is a vampire, is a murderer. The person who wrote this book did it quietly bleeding, hoping that we'll focus on the words and not the puddle forming where their life has leaked out on a dive bar's vinyl floor. This book is a culmination worthy of the last 16."

-Charlene Elsby

"'You're patting everything / but the mouth down'...yeah buddy, we're aware. This finale from one of my closest writer peers delivers on exactly why you fell in love with him in the first place...a surrealist autofiction journey with the man who inspired an entire literary subculture. It was never a "morally ambiguous werewolf" in the living room, it was a Barracuda, and y'all will finally realize that after they get up and walk out the door."

-Joshua Robert Long

"Noah Fang Quicksilver is very cinematic, monstrous, funny and tender, vulnerable and self-effacing. I think it would work as an album / audio book, released on bandcamp, new horizons and all that. Find you a synth player."

-Michael Sikkema

"NOAH FANG QUICKSILVER is a magnum opus served in a bus tub. The titular vampiric character is a riotous mess and an eccentric protagonist. A communal mentor, morphed into a 'bloodsucker', they speak with prose that is thorough, metaphoric, crafty, and brave. You shall experience a niche perspective of indie publishing retrospection and malaise seeped over the creative ecosystem. Barracuda Guarisco's final book-the conclusion of a 'multi-dimensional book tour'-will be one to remember."
