Trade Review"At last -- a post-9/11 novel with imagination, guts, and integrity, and one that actually shows real people being sucked into the American nightmare. John McNally is a marvelous writer and should be applauded for producing this timely, stylish, and often hilarious book. This is Don DeLillo's
White Noise for the overeducated, underemployed generation of Americans who, for the first time ever, will be poorer than their parents." -- Irvine Welsh, author of
Trainspotting"It has been a long time since I've been so excited, provoked, and haunted by a novel as I have been by
America's Report Card. I want to run out and buy multiple copies -- for my kids' teachers, my co-workers . . . even my stupid senator. I flat-out can't wait to talk about this book, which is a brilliant, laugh-out-loud satire of contemporary American life with a tender, angry heart and enormous compassion for the little guy. You've got to read it. John McNally is emerging as one of the best American writers of the new century." -- Dan Chaon, author of
You Remind Me of Me and
Among the Missing"In
America's Report Card, John McNally takes on domestic espionage, the American school system, and the mutative nature of love. Brilliantly written, McNally's unblinking novel is an earnest and hilarious portrayal of the American psyche at its worst and its best." -- Erika Krouse, author of
Come Up and See Me Sometime"John McNally's new novel is keenly biting social satire -- but with a living human heart inside its armor of wit.
America's Report Card will leave you both laughing and wondering." -- Madison Smartt Bell, author of
The Stone That the Builder Refused"This is a great book. In
America's Report Card, John McNally manages to be fierce and funny, darkly strange and completely relevant. For all the bottled rage in this book, it is ultimately a story about human connection, and an enduring one at that." -- Tom Barbash, author of
