...cartoonist delves so eagerly into the contents of his compromised cranium, he loses all sense of perspective. He seems to have no interest in the anguish of others--the actual victims, for example--or in why the attacks occurred.

In the graphic novel In the Shadow of No Towers by Art Spiegelman (Maus), the cartoonist ruminates on feeling equally terrorized by al-Qaeda and by his own government. And many authors, including Stephen King and Joyce Carol Oates, contributed to The Future Dictionary of America, which includes definitions like "cheney [chay´-nee] v.i.
