"In Derek McCormack's home province, farm boys with growing pains enjoy a little-known meal called bed-supper–a hearty bowl of sweet breakfast cereal enjoyed as a midnight snack. Here McCormack has composed a peculiarly salacious bed-supper, where the long secret sweet-tooth of the Marquis de Sade glints as it sinks into the dirtiest of dishes. This useful book will more than stay your appetite until breakfast–Castle Faggot is also a manual of redecoration, a musical, a puppet show, a theory of cosmetics, a work of poetics, and a glorious celebration of the French decadence."–Lisa Robertson, author of The Baudelaire Fractal
"It is really just one of the best books ever, and maybe the greatest novel ever written."–Dennis Cooper, author of The Marbled Swarm
