Fantasyland: How America Went Haywire: A 500-Year History by Kurt Andersen

2.0

Anderson’s voice only worked for me in small doses. I felt like I was either being yelled at or having eyes rolled at me for most of the book, and even though I agreed with a lot of what he was saying, his voice made it tiring. That’s not to say I didn’t like anything: I thought his history of American Christianity was great, the conclusion ties all the threads of history the book had surfaced into a tight narrative, and his conclusions about how to push back at the end made me feel a genuine little glimmer of hope.
