>the author never address either the reader or the characters; the work is largely disconnected and nonsensical aiming to produce more of an emotional miasma that engulfs, violates and forcefully deindividuates the reader.

>America is not a young land: it is old and dirty and evil. Before the settlers, before the Indians... the evil was there... waiting

>A paranoid is someone who knows a little of what's going on. A psychotic is a guy who's just found out what's going on.

>Desperation is the raw material of drastic change. Only those who can leave behind everything they have ever believed in can hope to escape.

>I am not one of those weak-spirited, sappy Americans who want to be liked by all the people around them. I don’t care if people hate my guts; I assume most of them do. The important question is whether they are in a position to do anything about it. My affections, being concentrated over a few people, are not spread all over Hell in a vile attempt to placate sulky, worthless shits.

etc.
