Description - Civilwarland In Bad Decline by George Saunders
'An astoundingly tuned voice - graceful, dark, authentic and funny' Thomas Pynchon
The first ferocious, funny and unique collection of stories from George Saunders, winner of the inaugural Folio Prize
THE 2017 MAN BOOKER-SHORTLISTED AUTHOR OF LINCOLN IN THE BARDO
In his first collection, George Saunders' vision of our near future is as black and funny as you can get. He takes us on a trip to the shopping malls and theme parks and enviromental hazards that lie just around the chronological corner, introducing us to a gang of misfits and losers struggling to survive in an increasingly haywire world. Bizarre but familiar, fierce but always humane, these are stunningly original stories by a master of the form.
'Saunders is a morally passionate, serious writer, who perfectly expresses the madness of the times we live in. He will be read long after these times have passed' Zadie Smith
'He makes the all-but-impossible look effortless. We're lucky to have him' Jonathan Franzen
'There is no-one better, no-one more essential' Dave Eggers
