Not only a must-read for anyone wanting to understand Trump's
America but also a laugh-out-loud undiluted pleasure -- Will Storr,
author of Selfie
This is an important book - the indispensable book - for
understanding America in the age of Trump. It's an eye-opening
history filled with brilliant insights, a saga of how we were
always susceptible to fantasy, from the Puritan fanatics to the
talk-radio and Internet wackos who mix show business, hucksterism,
and conspiracy theories. -- Walter Isaacson, author of Steve
Jobs
Fantasyland presents the very best kind of idea - one that,
in retrospect, seems obvious, but which took a seer like Kurt
Andersen to piece together. The thinking and the writing are both
dazzling; it is at once a history lesson and an oh-so-modern cri de
coeur; it's an absolute joy to read, and will leave your brain
dancing with excitement long after you're done -- Stephen Dubner,
co-author of Freakonomics
An absorbing, must-read polemic. * Newsday *
The most important book that I have read this year. -- Lawrence
O'Donnell * The Last Word, MSNBC *
