A DeBaser review by HOPELESS celebrates Tibor Fischer's The Thought Gang (Italian: La Gang del Pensiero) as a digressive, satirical novel mixing philosophy and pulp. The review highlights characters Eddie Coffin and Hube and the book's irregular, tour-de-force structure. It frames the novel as English with strong Eastern European echoes and as playful about ideas, crime and memory.
