I've seen George Saunders on Letterman. He seems like a good guy: modest, funny, likable. And Tenth of December was hyped on NPR, the reviewer proclaiming it might be the best book you will read this year.
He has been described as the chronicler of the wage slave, and the best short story writer today, so naturally I had to lay my hands on a copy.
Here is my review.
How to respond: Incumbent upon, and what not. But what would they say? Keep wits, no doubt. Keep wits. It could be done. Oh God, voice rec. Ignition. Sledding is tough, unbelieving, informal. Hotel Echo, this is Charlie Delta. Show some respect. (Weds OK?) Coffee shop sample requester. Direct quote: "cornhole the ear-cunt." Added bonus or pure liberty? Takingwise.
If you've enjoyed my review of Tenth of December by George Saunders, then you might like Tenth of December.
