Major newspaper critics are raving about Starkweather, with the Washington Post’s headline reading, “The killings that made mass murder an American obsession; Harry N. MacLean’s ‘Starkweather’ revisits a notorious midcentury crime and finally gives one woman the justice she deserves.” MacLean favorably compared to Capote and Mailer.
