About the product Any story from this collection could have been written by Chekhov, had he lived to see the time of the Internet, virtual reality and the war in Iraq. All stories are very different, in the center of each is a person with simple problems, whose life is invaded by the unknown and the strange. All the stories here are a little with a weird, and in their sum, they are not inferior in terms of invention to Booker’s novel «Lincoln in the Bardo.» Abstract A new book from short story master George Saunders, one of the most original and important writers of his generation. Honest and engaging stories about the people around us ask important questions about the very essence of our being — what makes us kind and what makes us human? Love, despair, war, work, sex and consciousness — Saunders describes the foundations of our reality with unique energy. Funny, strange and in some ways even Chekhov’s, these stories not only reveal the inexplicable, but also open the door to the human heart.
