...agreed to turn over the names of thousands of its American clients to the Internal Revenue Service, as the federal government attempts to crack down on tax evasion. Caspersen held a bank account with LGT, a private bank in Liechtenstein. The government of Liechtenstein has also agreed to reveal names of wealthy American clients, an anonymous individual familiar with the investigation told the Times.

Somehow this absurd explanation for the origins of “Imperial” seems absolutely credible coming from Vollmann, whose previous works reveal, if nothing else, a man easily obsessed. A sentimentality colors the prose of Vollmann’s work at large in a way that would make calling “Imperial” purely non-fiction reductive.
