“Corey Mesler’s Talk is a brilliant tour de force of a novel, witty and wise and zingy with the zeitgeist. This is indeed an auspicious fiction debut." ~Robert Olen Butler, Pulitzer Prize winning author of Good Scent from a Strange Mountain

“Corey Mesler’s novel-in-dialogue Talk is a smart, funny, harrowing look at the way language at once defines us and fails to sustain us. Talk is a bittersweet gospel for our time.” ~ Steve Stern, Jewish Book Award winner for The Wedding Jester

“Talk is original and evocative. Mesler has a sharp ear not only for how we say things, but, more importantly, for what the words really mean. A unique reading experience.” ~John Grisham
