"...His latest book, marked by an enthusiastic interest in busty women, is a xenophobe’s racy vision of hell.

I sense a pattern. A year or two ago I read another scathing-yet-sophomoric critique of you work by a panicky liberal, and he seemed obsessed with the fact that your female protagonist had breasts. His tone implied that there was something wrong with that.

Hmmmm.

I took that breast ref to mean they really couldn’t find fault with the plot or characterizations. Big boobs are featured nowhere in the novel. Ranya might have been described in some man’s thoughts as curvy, but that’s about it. I’m guessing that Susy Buchanan resembles an anorexic Olive Oyl, and she took that type of mild description personally as an insult to herself.
