Review
'An American short-story writer of intimidating talent' (Zadie Smith)
'Graceful, dark, authentic and funny' (Thomas Pynchon)
'Dark, concerned, confused and funny, all at the same time ... Like so much of Saunders' brilliant, crazy writing it's relevant, but not too relevant' (The Times)
'You do not read Saunders' stories so much as watch them detonate on the page in front of you, like a firecracker some joker has slipped into your pudding' (New Statesman)
Book Description
From the No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of the 2017 Man Booker Prize winner Lincoln in the Bardo
