Both perplexing and delightful, Jeanne Randolph’s writing is rooted in eclectic research and a deeply fertile imagination… Funny, smart, and engaging, Randolph spins a kaleidoscope of vignettes of Vegas and intricately wrought meditations on materialist culture… Steeped in history, theology, and Freudian psychoanalysis, Shopping Cart Pantheism is intellectual but accessible, and a whole lot of fun.—Publishers Weekly

A witty, genre-bending narrative that joyfully combines social satire, cultural criticism and off-beat humour. Think of A Modest Proposal narrated by a woman who visits Las Vegas armed only with “an active subconscious and lots of nap time.”–Méira Cook
