Pia's Nest: McSweeney's Recommends.

August 05, 2007

McSweeney's Recommends.

Books. Also, microwaving cake for 20 seconds, and a hundred other things you might not've known about.

Famous Fathers and Other Stories by Pia Z. Ehrhardt
Readers of the quarterly know Ms. Ehrhardt's stories from Issues 14 and 16, and now there's a whole book of them together in one place, which is very convenient. So emotionally honest you almost want to flinch while you're reading.

God Is Dead by Ron Currie Jr.
This is one of those "linked" story collections. Linking these stories is the question What if God died and people found out? Each story burrows into you and rolls around for days, possibly even weeks, but it hasn't been that long since we devoured the book, so it's hard to say that for sure.
