Liberation Day : From ?the world?s best short story writer? (The Telegraph) and winner of the Man Booker Prize
Saunders, George
’Saunders is funny and kind as ever, and his narrative virtuosity puts
him up there with the best’ Anne Enright, Guardian ’A triumph of
storytelling’ i paper’A joy. ’Effortlessly stylish, funny and smart’
Daily Mail____________The first short story collection in ten years from
the Man Booker Prize-winning, New York Times-bestselling author of
Lincoln in the BardoMacArthur genius and Booker Prize-winner George
Saunders returns with a collection of short stories that make sense of
our increasingly troubled world, his first since the New York Times
bestseller and National Book Award finalist Tenth of DecemberThe ’best
short story writer in English’ (Time) is back with a masterful
collection that explores ideas of power, ethics, and justice, and cuts
to the very heart of what it means to live in community with our fellow
humans. With his trademark prose - wickedly funny, unsentimental, and
perfectly tuned - Saunders continues to challenge and surprise: here is a
collection of prismatic, deeply resonant stories that encompass joy and
despair, oppression and revolution, bizarre fantasy and brutal reality.
’Love Letter’ is a tender missive from grandfather to grandson, in
the midst of a dystopian political situation in the not-too-distant
future, that reminds us of our obligations to our ideals, ourselves, and
each other. ’Ghoul’ is set in a Hell-themed section of an underground
amusement park in Colorado, and follows the exploits of a lonely,
morally complex character named Brian, who comes to question everything
he takes for granted about his ’reality.’ In ’Mother’s Day’, two women
who loved the same man come to an existential reckoning in the middle of
a hailstorm. And in ’Elliott Spencer’, our eighty-nine-year-old
protagonist finds himself brainwashed - his memory ’scraped’ - a victim
of a scheme in which poor, vulnerable people are reprogrammed and
deployed as political protesters.
Together, these nine
subversive, profound, and essential stories coalesce into a case for
viewing the world with the same generosity and clear-eyed attention as
Saunders does, even in the most absurd of circumstances.
____________’The only way to experience Saunders’s oblique, farcical,
tragic world is to dive right in. It will take the top of your head off,
but it’s worth it’ The Times’The world’s best short story writer ...
