Synopses & Reviews

Review:

"...smart, macabre satire of the War on Terror...Madeson's Kafkaesque plot defies the blurb...but an 'anti-Bush Weekend at Bernies for the shiva-sitting set' might be an apt description." Justin Moyer, Washington City Paper

Review:

"...has the virtues of being both entertaining and thematically coherent...pitched somewhere between outright satire and what used to be called 'black humor'...The off-kilter comedy...is established immediately and creates a consistently off-kilter world." Daniel Green, The Reading Experience

Review:

"Her deadpan nonchalance makes you shiver and chuckle...Any slightly guilty, lapsed Jewish New Yorker or anyone with bitterness toward our current administration...will get a kick out of Cooperative Village." Melissa Korn, Downtown Express

Review:

"Frances Madeson knows the power of humor. Cooperative Village is a wickedly hilarious satire of the War on Terror." TaRessa Stovall, The Montclair Times

Review:

"I read it. I loved it. It's extremely funny. You should read it... She's wicked, she's merciless, she rings true the way strong satire does. It's not profound, it's not Proust, but it's more fun." Daniel Millstone, The Daily Gotham
