HuffPlug


Although it's not fiction but nonfiction, my book Corrupted Science has this morning been given a mention at the bottom of Jeff VanderMeer's round-up of political fiction on The Huffington Post

. . . and John Grant's Corrupted Science: Fraud, Ideology, and Politics (FFF, hardcover) which includes a scathing expose of George W. Bush's subversion of science that reads more like fiction than fact, has just been given a big push by the publisher and is once again available in your local chain bookstore.

Of the novels Jeff reviews, the one that I must get hold of once I can allow myself again, finally, to read for leisure rather than research is The Pisstown Chaos by David Ohle (Soft Skull Press); it looks to be tailormade for moi. Lipsmacking.

Huzzah!

Hey, The Pisstown Chaos sounds right up my alley. In fact, the title pretty much describes where I live.

Wow! You made the HuffPost! I'm not worthy...

Congratulations on the plug! Here's hoping it gives the sales a real boost. Hugs and confetti, Jean Marie
