My review of George Saunders’ excellent short story collection Tenth of December is now live at the Lincoln Journal-Star. It was also in Sunday’s paper, I believe.
If you love Saunders, this is more of his brilliance. If you’ve not read him, this is as good a place as any to start. If you’re somewhere in between, there’s not much new here for you.
(I’m in the first category. However, I finished the book wishing Saunders had pushed his plots in new directions.)
