What They're Saying
Critics Review
“GQ”
Quintessential Klosterman – sometimes exasperating but almost always engaging.

“The Onion” a.v. clubOne of the brightest pieces of pop analysis to appear this century.
“The Washington Post”Maddeningly smart and funny…[Klosterman’s] good humor, compassion, and raw associative powers put him in the same league as Nick Hornby and Douglas Coupland, though he’s a more tenacious critic than either.
