Darby Dixon had this to say about Grant Bailie: "He wrote this book, Cloud 8, about a guy who dies and heads to an afterlife where people dress up like Abraham Lincoln, there's cigarette butts ground into the cracks of the sidewalks, and angels request cardboard wings. From that potentially absurdist premise he spins an understated book that's funny and sad and pretty and quiet all at once. I'm looking forward to his next book--he's posted the beginning of it on his public blog, and it's got a very promising opening paragraph."
