Here's one of those '90s articles - I don't see a date on it but it was in the beginning of the Clinton-Lewinsky thing.
I stumbled across it b/c, while I've never read anything by Quinn, I've read a lot about her, and I remembered a review that called one of her books "cliterature." I couldn't remember who wrote the review -- turns out it was Christopher Buckley -- but I remembered that it sent Quinn into a rage and she quit speaking to Tina Brown because of it.
I still don't intend to ever read anything she writes, but I got a huge kick out of this post.
Oh, and Mrs. Frankweiler - I just made my daughter read The Mixed Up Files, and she loved it.
