Three Month Fever
byGary Indiana, Olivia Laing (Introducer)
Publisher’s WeeklyElectrifying . . . Indiana's re-creation of Cunanan's crimes and ever-shifting states of mind are convincing, but his real story, and strength, is his analysis of the hysterical, wildly inaccurate media coverage of the case. In the end, Cunanan's life and crimes, both factual and reimagined, become Indiana's vehicle to explore and expose how the media create a self-referential and self-perpetuating culture of hysteria, stereotypes, inaccuracies and glorified violence
GuardianA hero to the underground . . . Gary struck me as an authentic downtown literary artist, with a provenance that roped in Frank O’Hara’s concept of personism and Lou Reed’s unsparing empathy
IndependentGary Indiana belongs to a special breed of American urban writers who take cool pleasure in dissecting the lives of the rich and ugly . . . On a good day, he makes Bret Easton Ellis look like Enid Blyton, yet many, myself included, think he might have already written the Great America Novel(s)
KirkusA vivid and gripping account
