"Under the Skin" in City Slab Magazine #7. In his review for Tangent Online, Douglas Hoffman writes, "Nicholas Kaufmann's 'Under the Skin' features an impressively dysfunctional Passover seder, sibling rivalry from Gehenom, a convincing portrayal of a cutter, and a chilling, memorable finish. What a story! Kaufmann must know a few cutters, or else he has done his homework. He takes the emotional release experienced by cutters and amplifies it, makes it material."
