Overview

  "...Lock's ideas lend tangy new flavor to an old form...   HOUSE OF CORRECTION is first, last and always a superior mystery-comedy-thriller...   He has written a fast moving, absurdist piece of neo-realistic suspense of the sort that works best only in the theater. It is a tribute to his talent...."Sylvie Drake, Los Angeles Times    "...Norman Lock's treatment of the evils of psychotic schizophrenia versus the even more ugly aspects of pretentious armchair liberalism is nothing short of hilarious in this outing. It's offbeat and loony with a sitcom flare...."Teen., Daily Variety    "...it's very funny, and very scary like a nightmare that wakes you up shaking, forcing you to reassess your life....   Lock's weapon is words and he uses them well...his imagery is vivid, his dramatic momentum strong...."Tom Jacobs, L.A.
