"Having spent the past two weeks in what I might call a spiritual  
communion with these authors, I can assure you that [their] texts are  
not the psychotic, fact-challenged rants of the mad, but carefully  
crafted metafictions in which the mundane terrors of cultural  
dislocation are recast as riveting epics of paranoia. As such, they  
fit into a long literary tradition." Salon 09/12/09  http://www.salon.com/books/feature/2009/09/12/rightwing_bestsellers/index.html
