Giới thiệu Sách My Search for Warren Harding

An exhilarating, brutal, comedic masterpiece―an American>Houston Post)

When My Search for Warren Harding, Robert Plunket’s glittering story of literary sleuthing and deceit, first appeared in 1983, it garnered immediate and far-reaching acclaim. Frank Conroy at the Washington Post exclaimed, “The author pulled me in so deftly, moved me up an escalating scale of sly hyperbole so cunningly, that after a hundred pages, I seemed to have turned over the keys, so to speak, of my nervous system”; Florence King at the Dallas Times Herald, “The most exciting event in American letters for a very long time: a momentous book.” More recently, though long out of print, it was canonized in The Guardian’s “1000 Novels Everyone Must Read,” ranked by the Washington Post as one of the top five books of “great American comic fiction,” and praised by Michael Leone in the Los Angeles Review of Books as “a>"A riotous debut: The Aspern Papers performed by the Brothers Marx."
― Time

"Plunket’s confessional tone, his absurdity, and his lack of boundary between himself and his characters is a forebear too to the kind of humor that flourishes on social media, group chats, and podcasts...nothing this funny is being written today."
― Zsofia Paulikovics, Jacobin

"It’s rare for a long-forgotten writer into his eighth decade to get rediscovered. What’s even more unusual about Plunket, and his unlikely return, is how stealthily influential his fiction has been over the decades."
― Alexandra Alter, The New York Times

"One of the most original comic novels of the past half century."
― Casey Cep, The New Yorker

"A savagely comic take on the Gay Best Friend as a malicious manipulator."
― Mark Harris, The New York Times

"There’s a subversive thrill to reading this novel. Elliot’s voice is so well realized, so cattily confiding, he draws you in. The novel is eccentric, light on its feet and doesn’t take itself too seriously."
― Robbie Millen, The Times
