Since the only apparent media reference is to the fact that something is not in this book, I do not see thebasis of notability DGG ( talk ) 03:06, 6 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Changed to Keep given those sources. I didn't look on JSTOR but should've.
Delete – Absolutely nothing to be found in my searches save two passing mentions with no relevance whatsoever to practically anything. The author doesn't have an article, furthering the case for deletion and eliminating the redirect and merge options. References on the article lead nowhere save one of the passing mentions.

- Comment, "Absolutely nothing to be found in my searches", well i found some reviews (see below), and "The author doesn't have an article, furthering the case for deletion...", no it doesn't, wikipedia does not have to have an author article for one or more of their works to be notable enough for a standalone article.

- Keep I found 1 and 2 within 30 seconds but I see Coolabahapple got there before me. On the subject of before, WP:BEFORE states "The minimum search expected is a normal Google search, a Google Books search, a Google News search, and a Google News archive search; Google Scholar is suggested for academic subjects.".--Pontificalibus 12:13, 6 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
