This novel has a party scene that's basically picrel but with catholicism instead of The Beatles. One of the great literary spergouts.

There's also a single footnote in the entire 700+ pg book, and it's just listing the illicit lovers of Elizabeth I.

Darconville and Warholic are both thinly-disguised rants about how shit America was at the time of writing. The latter is like one big bloated corpse, ready to burst. Theroux's mistake, other than not consulting an editor, was thinking that we couldn't sink any lower after the '90s (which is the era it deals with), when in fact there was plenty of gas left.
