   What happens when Ellroy is on in the Enchanters?

   • “When [Ellroy is] on, as he is in his new, Marilyn Monroe-centered book The Enchanters, a sort of fever takes hold of the reader. Fact, fiction and conspiracy blur together until you can’t tell which is which, and you almost cease to care.

   Is the Enchanters A good book?

   • It’s just a shot away. The Enchanters is a transcendent work of American popular fiction. It is James Ellroy at his most crazed, brilliant, provocative, profanely hilarious, and stop-your-heart tender. It is a luminous psychological drama and an unparalleled thrill ride. It is, resoundingly, the great American crime novel.

   Is the Enchanters based on a Cromwell trilogy?

   • Among recent novels, The Enchanters reminded me, perhaps surprisingly, of Hilary Mantel’s Cromwell trilogy. Like Mantel’s books, Ellroy’s novel circles around a central predicament focused on an iconic historical figure (Henry VIII, Monroe) whose life is sorted out by an eccentric genius (Cromwell, Otash).
