"Now turn your eyes...and you will see in front of and at the head of the other army the ever victorious and never defeated Timonel of Carcajona, prince of Nueva Vizcaya, who wears his armor quartered--blue, green, white, and yellow--and who bears on his shield a cat of gold on a tawny field, with a legend that reads: Meow... "

As bad as I feel at laughing and feeling humor at Don Quixote... I can not help but chuckle of things like this... Some of the 'humor' here is a bit base and childish, (the prat falls and vomiting) Alot of the writing is just spot on and is quite hilarious.

I want a really good bad novel that reads like it was written by an alien who has never read a book, but has had books thoroughly explained to him.

You won't find anything by a mainstream publisher just like the room wouldn't have been put out by a real studio but just look for self published novels on amazon with fucking mental covers and you'll find a million of them.

Thoughts on this book? Worth a read for a white supremacist such as me?

Every well written book is worth a read, especially if you have an extremist perspective. Either it expands your bubble, or it gives you material to create a counter-arguement.

What are your opinions on this man's work? I first learned about him through Delillo but I doubt that their writing is similar, I've read that he uses more magical realism and florid writing. He has a new one coming out but I'm more interested in his older more known stuff. Which should I start with?

Read the Prophet's Hair, it's a short story. It's a good intro to his style of magical realism with Islamic influences. If you like that go for Midnight's Children

Midnight's Children, then Satanic Verses.
