En obändig, oförutsägbar, ovanlig och oupphörligen roande essäistisk resa som rör allt från Apornas planet till elallergi, drapetomani och jordätande.
/Peter Englund, Årets böcker , Dagens Nyheter
Vi har ingen Annie Dillard i Sverige, ingen Iain Sinclair. Men vi har Bärtås och Ekman som utsätter detta dystra sanatorium för en stormvind av nyfikenhet, spekulation och angelägenhet.
/Jonas Thente, Dagens Nyheter
En litterär bastard, i sig lika svår att klassificera som de märkvärdigheter den avhandlar. Vi befinner oss i alltings utkant, mellan fiktion och verklighet, mellan vetenskap och galenskap, och likt gränsvakter i detta ingenmansland opererar bokens bägge författare.
/Fredrik Sjöberg, Svenska Dagbladet
Orienterarsjukan rör sig sömlöst mellan genrer och tidsepoker, mellan film, litteratur, konst och vetenskap. Vi förflyttas genom en kedja där individer, händelser och fenomen och de udda levnadsöden som presenteras får en överraskande etisk och politisk laddning.
Fredrik Ekman och Magnus Bärtås är kanske mest kända för sina hyllade böcker Alla monster måste dö, om en gruppresa genom Nordkorea, och Bebådaren, en biografisk-politisk essä över Gabriele D Annunzio och fascismens födelse i Europa.
