Unbabbling (American Literature (Dalkey Archive)) - Softcover

"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"
