The Amazing Website of Kavalier & Clay

Here is a collection of interviews and reviews by notable and unnotable critics. Each one contains different insights into the novel's plot and Chabon's intentions. I have tried to collect any reviews that exist, whether positive (which most of them are) or negative; however, obviously I have missed many. If you know of one I do not have on this list, e-mail me.

Read through the interviews and reviews, and when you are finished, read the book again; you may come away with more than you did the first time. The articles are listed chronologically.
