Mader is ... an endlessly fascinating eccentric, and absolutely everything he puts his hand to is very well worth reading. --Bradley Winterton, Taipei Times

On Idiocy, Ltd.

Eric Mader shows a sure hand in balancing satire, spoof, and twilight-zone weird, revealing hints of Kafka, Borges, and other worthies.--Duncan Chesney, Prof. of Comparative Literature, National Taiwan University

Entertaining and stimulating, demanding and rewarding ... Each text is a linguistic, or literary, or cultural event, something performed or enacted in one or multiple domains of discourse. --Hugh Hochman, Prof. of French at Reed College, Oregon
