"Upon reading I Am the Eggman, I found myself convinced
that J Milligan has earned his spot among that small pack of writers
successful in their efforts to convey the twisted state of affairs that is our
young century. The strangeness that
Milligan lays before us is not, however, an arbitrary splattering of
paint--there is a remarkable control behind this mad, pre-apocalyptic narrative
and a gift for language that punches exactly when it needs to. If at times I was reminded of Sam Lipsyte's
bleak but exacting humor, at others I felt the romance that gets me in
Murakami's best work. But, without
question, Milligan's voice is all his own . . . and it deserves the widest
possible audience, among which I will sit any time."
