The current issue of Amercian Book Review has a feature review on Jesus Coyote. In fact, it’s a 2-page spread which is a lot of space to devote to one review!
Here’s an excerpt:
Jaffe’s novel superbly methodically deconstructs Manson’s self-created mythology of being “too beautiful to be set free.” By the end of this novel, Coyote is only an ugly reminder of the beauty he destroyed. Jaffe exorcises the Manson mythology while admonishing the media for sensationalizing his monstrous acts.
They’ve also put it online as a sample review so you can read the whole thing here
