"Mike Daily packs so many stylistic smash cuts into Valley, MTV dulls by comparison."

--RAY GUN MAGAZINE


"[Valley is] an epic of fragmentation and disjointed thought processes, cutting in fits from genre to genre (screenplay, poetry, journalism, even college science lecture), with deliberately unrelenting commentary in the form of writing in the margins, footnotes, snapshots, bludgeoning headline-size type, and illustrations bleeding off the page. It should logically be a jarring, disjointed read. Miraculously it isn't. The reason is Daily's uncanny fluidity and rhythm."

--Brian Baltin, Blend Magazine


"American readers might not readily recognize the reference but Valley immediately brought to mind Nick Hornby's High Fidelity. While Hornby is a music obsessive Daily is books crazy. He knows his Beat and literary history and his mind is a fascinating archive."

--Kevin Ring, Beat Scene Magazine
