Jacket Magazine: Hotel Imperium Review
http://www.jacket.zip.com.au/jacket12/loden-reviewed-by-clark.html

This page, maintained by "Jacket Magazine" (a "free Internet review of new writing"), contains a book review of Loden's Hotel imperium. In Tom Clark's glowing review of the book, he discusses the writer's style, her wit, and the "culture-criticism" apparent in Loden's work. A good place to familiarize yourself with the writer's technique.
