Media Reviews
"'The Book of Daniel' is an ambitious, felt reconstruction of the little agonies, paranoias, obscenities, totems, murders, frauds and taboos of post-World War II America...[T]he book does take hold of us and force us to squint at ourselves because of its ability to energize the wreckage of our own past."
