Reviews
"Ambitious and passionately written... REYoung's style of compressing material is unique and viable; time passes so swiftly that events seem pancaked on one another." -- Harvey Pekar, Austin Chronicle "REYoung unveils a social babble that masks the bankrupt spiritual and emotional quality of human existence... It is a disturbing book, but it is disturbing because it effectively captures how the centrality of humanity has been wholly drowned out by the babble of money." -- Rain Taxi "The enigmatic REYoung's Unbabbling reads like a wild romp through the subconscious of such esteemed modernists as Joyce, Pynchon, and Kerouac. REYoung has come virtually from nowhere to deliver this stunningly well-crafted novel... It is the dynamic prose style that really makes the novel. REYoung alternates between a Pynchonesque vaudevillian satire to a tortured, rapid-fire stream of consciousness more typical of Jack Kerouac. A truly inspired piece of work." -- Booklist
