Jonathan Lethem: IMG Stops: On Those Things My New Novel Forgot to Be About, Maybe



For me, there's a weird, unfathomable gulf — I almost wrote gulp — between the completion of a novel and its publication. Some days this duration feels interminable, as though the book has... Continue »

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Michael Savage attacks big government and liberal media bias. The son of immigrants, Savage shows how traditional American freedoms are being destroyed from the outside and undermined from within-not just our own government, but also from alien forces within our own society. Savage argues that if the price of liberty is eternal vigilance, then only a more savage nation will enjoy these liberties. Savage's high ratings and the rapid growth of his program prove he is in touch with the concerns of the average American.

Review:

"Conservative radio hosts have come to dominate the airwaves with ferocious rhetoric that's often filled with ad hominem attacks and blatant untruths, but Michael Savage is easily the worst of the bunch. Savage...makes Rush Limbaugh look reasonable....Unlike Hannity's Let Freedom Ring...which often reads like a collection of Republican talking points, The Savage Nation is an almost unreadable amalgamation of virulent attacks on liberals, feminism, Islam and gays....Most of the book consists of fact-free rants...The Savage Nation doesn't bother with notes, and doesn't even have an index. Like Ann Coulter, Michael Moore and Hannity, when Savage does bother with facts, he often gets them wrong....Much of Savage's content, meanwhile, can be traced directly to columns he published on the conservative site NewsMax.com. The book itself is divided into two- to four-page sections, many of which are near-exact replicas of Savage's NewsMax columns with the same name. Most of the content in the book, in fact, can be found in the columns archived on this page [http://www.newsmax.com/pundits/archives/Michael_Savage-archive.shtml]. Of course, there's nothing wrong with collecting a series of columns into a book. It's noteworthy, however, that Savage doesn't tell his readers they're primarily reading recycled material, and it's revealing that a book containing so many errors is primarily a cut-and-paste job." Ben Fritz, Salon.com

Synopsis:

Savage attacks big government and liberal media bias, and shows how traditional American freedoms are being destroyed from the outside and undermined from within.

Description:

America is hungry for a book that reinforces patriotism, family, and traditional American values. Radio talk show host Michael Savage argues this viewpoint offering an insightful approach to reclaiming and preserving the nation's heritage.

The son of immigrants, Savage shows how traditional American freedoms are being destroyed from the outside and undermined from within — not just our own government, but also from alien forces within our own society.
