Requiem For Locusts 

A dynamite novel by first time novelist, Wendy Parciak.

"I think my head is so full it might burst and the people here could fly around like frantic locusts for their whole lives ... I think something is going to change soon, something must change, but whether this is good or bad I do not know."
 
In an incredible tour de force, Wendy Parciak drops you into the experience of a young woman's disordered mind and how her odd behavior sends shock waves throughout the seemingly placid neighborhood, forcing the larger-than-life characters to creep out of their alienated shells, as they confront the mirrors of their own selves when reflected in the madness of another. Requiem For Locusts is a story of transformation that will make you both grin and weep.
